Summary

Jimbo brings you this week's Totally extra on a Friday to cover the Thursday night Champions League games alongside Jack Lang, Charlie Eccleshare and Tom Williams.

Marcus Rashford had his breakout game for Barcelona on Tyneside, scoring 2 excellent goals to get their Champions League campaign off to a flyer. Meanwhile Foden shone and Haaland became the fastest ever player to reach 50 Champions League goals, as Man City beat a 10-man Napoli 2-0.

Big games await for both sides on Sunday with City travelling to The Emirates and Newcastle visiting Andoni Iraola's impressive Bournemouth side.

Plus Mourinho is appointed as new Benfica boss, back at the club where it all started for him in management.

Produced by Jesse Howard and Charlie Jones.
