The second night of Champions League action saw 26 goals in eight matches, but most of the results were perhaps expected: Cristiano Ronaldo grabbed a brace on his return from suspension for Real Madrid and Harry Kane scored two as Tottenham Hotspur ended their Wembley jinx. The biggest surprise element was Manchester City defender John Stones grabbing a brace himself. And for fans of Premier League, Liverpool were held by Sevilla with a late equaliser on their Champions League comeback.
