The UEFA Champions League continues with the second of six matchdays in the group stage.

The marquee matchup saw two tournament favorites meet in Paris as PSG beat Man City 2-0 with Lionel Messi scoring his first goal for his new club. Tuesday’s slate also featured the Group of Death (Group B): Liverpool steamrolled Porto 5-1, while Atletico Madrid pulled off a late come-from-behind win at AC Milan.

Wednesday’s big game is the Juventus vs. Chelsea clash in Group H. Manchester United and FC Barcelona will also be looking to rebound after opening match losses: Barca travel to face Benfica and Man United welcomes Villarreal in a rematch of last year’s Europa League final.

The Tuesday highlights follow below, along with the complete Wednesday schedule which features two matches at 12:45 p.m. ET to kick things off.

UEFA Champions League 2021-2022: Tournament Format

The 2021-2022 edition of the UEFA Champions League features a familiar format and one massive new twist.

As usual, the tournament starts out with a group stage (eight groups of four teams each), and only the top two finishers in each group advance to the Round of 16 that kicks off in February 2022. Two-leg, aggregate-goal knockout rounds are played the rest of the way through to the single game final that will be held on May 28, 2022 in Russia.

• Group Stage: Sept. 14-15, Sept. 28-29, Oct. 19-20, Nov. 2-3, Nov. 23-24, Dec. 7-8
• Round of 16: Feb. 15-16, March 8-9 / Feb. 22-23, March 15-16
• Quarterfinals: April 5-6, April 12-13
• Semifinals: April 26-27, May 3-4
• Final: May 28, 2022 (St. Petersburg, Russia)

No away goals tiebreaker

Here’s that twist: For the first time since 1965, there will be no away goals tiebreaker used in the knockout rounds of UEFA competitions, including the Champions League, after it was abolished in June 2021.

Series that are tied on aggregate goals after the conclusion of the second leg will go straight to extra time and, if necessary, a penalty-kick shootout.
