Phil Foden looks for first goal as Manchester City defeats FC Porto
Summary

Manchester City started its UEFA Champions League campaign with a 2-0 victory against FC Porto at the Estádio do Dragão on Tuesday night. Phil Foden featured prominently in the win, providing a key pass that led to the opening goal. Despite his role in the victory, the England international remains without a goal for Manchester City in 34 matches. His last scoring contribution occurred during a 3-2 victory over Leeds United on December 14, 2025. Foden has struggled to convert opportunities recently, missing chances in matches against Crystal Palace and Coventry City. Team management and observers note his general play is trending upward, but a goal remains the missing piece to fully regain his finishing form. Foden may look to end this scoring drought during the upcoming match against Manchester United this Sunday.
