Records tumble as Manchester City continue their European dominance

Manchester City cruised to a 3-1 victory over FC Copenhagen overnight to confirm their place in the quarter-finals of this season’s UEFA Champions League. Pep Guardiola’s side has become a dominant force in Europe which culminated in City’s first-ever UEFA Champions League title last season.

On their way to winning the trophy last season and during Manchester City’s defence of the Champions League this season they have set a host of records. The records that have been set by Manchester City illustrate how dominant they have become on European club football’s biggest stage. It is a testament to the consistency and hunger of Pep Guardiola’s squad that despite all of their success they continue to strive for more. It would be natural for City’s players to sit back and admire what they have achieved. Instead, they continue to chase more history which shows just how special this Manchester City squad is.

Pep Guardiola has turned Manchester City into a winning machine in Europe

Against FC Copenhagen they made it 30 consecutive games unbeaten at the Etihad Stadium. Last night’s victory over FC Copenhagen further extended their record of games unbeaten at home by an English club in the Champions League. Arsenal previously held the record with 24 games unbeaten between September 2004 and April 2009. City trails Barcelona’s all-time record which stands at 38 games unbeaten at home in the Champions League.
