Anyone who managed to witness Manchester City and Monaco's eight-goal epic at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester yesterday will agree that the round of 16 first leg fixture was one of the best Champions League clashes in recent times. Anyone except for the extremely unlucky punter, who was just minutes away from bagging himself €34,000 ($50,000 NZD) during City's memorable 5-3 win over the Ligue 1 leaders. Had the score remained the same in Manchester, Celik would be €34,000 richer and praising Stones for completing City's emphatic comeback win. Instead, he was left ruing Leroy Sane's 82nd minute goal, handing City a 5-3 lead and putting an end to Celik's miracle bet. I read about it in the newspapers ... sorry for that poor guy #inSané pic.twitter.com/Kx6X87Gti3 — Leroy Sané (@LeroySane19) February 22, 2017"I read about it in the newspapers.
