<p>PARIS, France -- Manchester City&#x27;s struggles continued as Pep Guardiola&#x27;s side remarkably blew a three-goal lead to draw 3-3 with Feyenoord in the Champions League on Tuesday, while Bayern Munich beat Paris Saint-Germain to leave the French club in danger of elimination.</p><p>There were also big wins for Arsenal, Atletico Madrid, Atalanta and Bayer Leverkusen, while Inter Milan went top of the standings after five games and Barcelona&#x27;s Robert Lewandowski reached a century of Champions League goals.</p><p>However, the biggest drama came at the Etihad Stadium, where City were cruising early in the second half with a three-goal advantage as they sought to end a run of five successive defeats in all competitions.</p><p>Erling Haaland opened the scoring from a penalty just before half-time, and Ilkay Gundogan&#x27;s deflected shot made it 2-0 in the 50th minute.</p><p>Haaland struck again to make it 3-0, but Feyenoord&#x27;s comeback began on 75 minutes when Anis Hadj Moussa took advantage of hapless defending to round goalkeeper Ederson and pull one back.</p><p>Substitute Santiago Gimenez bundled in to make it 3-2 on 82 minutes and the equaliser arrived a minute from the end.</p><p>Ederson was again caught out with Igor Paixao going around the goalkeeper and crossing for Slovak international David Hancko to head in.</p><p>&quot;We concede a lot of goals because we are not stable,&quot; complained Guardiola.</p><p>&quot;We lost a lot of games lately.
