RB Leipzig suffered a second successive Champions League Group A defeat with a surprise home loss to Belgian side Club Bruges.

Last season’s Bundesliga runners-up Leipzig went ahead after only five minutes through Christopher Nkunku.

But Bruges turned the game around before half-time through goals from Hans Vanaken and Mats Rits.

Leipzig, beaten 6-3 by Manchester City in their opening game a fortnight ago, now lie bottom of the group.

The Germans have a daunting trip to face Paris St-Germain in their next Champions League game on 19 October.

In the group’s other game, Lionel Messi scored his first goal for PSG since joining in the summer in their 2-0 victory over Manchester City.
