Aymeric Laporte proud of Man City after 0-0 FC Copenhagen draw

Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte is proud of his Manchester City teammates after their draw with FC Copenhagen in Denmark. City thought they had taken the lead just ten minutes in when Rodri unleashed a rocket into the top corner, but VAR directed the referee to a handball in the build-up by Riyad Mahrez which ruled out the fine strike.

The Blues were left praising VAR 15 minutes later when it spotted a handball in the FC Copenhagen penalty area. Mahrez stepped up but saw his spot kick saved by Kamil Grabara.

Five minutes later and City were down to ten men when Sergio Gomez denied a blatant goalscoring opportunity. Despite being at a disadvantage for so long, the Blues held on for a valuable point.
