Manchester City defeated AEK Athens 5-1 in a Champions League match held at the Etihad Stadium in Manchester on Tuesday. The victory was highlighted by a hat-trick from Phil Foden, who delivered a significant performance following a period of inconsistent form over the previous two seasons.
Despite the decisive win, the match was marked by a low turnout at the newly-expanded 61,000-seat stadium. Significant portions of the venue remained empty throughout the contest, drawing attention to the lack of attendance despite the team's on-field success.
