Newcastle settled with a goalless draw against AC Milan, while Manchester City emerged victorious with a 3-1 win over Red Star.
Manchester United's new goalkeeper Andre Onana expressed disappointment with his performance in Manchester, admitting that Leroy Sane's soft shot managed to find its way into the goal against Bayern. On the other hand, the Gunners made a triumphant start to their first Champions League campaign in six years, with goals scored by Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard, Gabriel Jesus, and Martin Odegaard. David Raya, who took over the No 1 position from Aaron Ramsdale in the previous game against Everton, maintained his clean sheet for the second consecutive match. Ramsdale has played only one game since then, which was against Brentford in the Carabao Cup.
Newcastle displayed an exceptional defensive performance in a 0-0 draw against AC Milan, with Nick Pope making impressive saves against 25 shots, nine of which were on target.
In an impressive comeback, Manchester City's Julian Alvarez scored two goals, while Rodri secured the victory as they prevailed over Red Star.
Cetic conceded a goal in first-half injury time against Feyenoord, courtesy of Calvin Stengs' free-kick. Their downfall continued in the second half as Gustaf Lagerbielke received a second yellow card at the 60-minute mark, followed by Odin Thiago Holm who was shown a straight red minutes later.
In the upcoming week, Manchester United will host Galatasaray, Arsenal will travel to Lens, Newcastle will welcome Paris Saint-Germain to St James' Park, Manchester City will visit RB Leipzig, and Celtic will host Lazio.
