COPENHAGEN, Denmark — The Manchester City juggernaut has ground to a halt in the unlikeliest of places. Danish struggler FC Copenhagen became the first team to stop City from scoring this season as a Champions League group match overshadowed by early video-review decisions ended in a 0-0 draw. The point was enough to secure City's place in the last 16 with two matches left in the group stage. One of those VAR calls resulted in a red card for City left back Sergio Gomez in the 30th minute for pulling back Hákon Arnar Haraldsson as the last man. City midfielder Rodri had a goal disallowed and Riyad Mahrez had a penalty saved after more interventions by VAR.
