From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

85 min: A corner for City five minutes to go. Silva swings it in from the left and it's Otamendi who gets there first. He was moving away from the goal though and struggled to direct the ball on target as his effort sailed wide of the near post.

89 min: City are really taking their time now. They've got plenty of space at the back and the Germans aren't really pressing as the defence strings the ball between themselves. Given their lack of urgency it's clear to see that Pep's players will be happy with the draw.

90 min: Two minutes of extra time.

FULL TIME: Borussia M'Gladback 1-1 Manchester City

And that's that! City book their spot in the last-16 having seen out a safe draw tonight in Germany. It wasn't the most emphatic of performances but the visitors managed the game in a professional and composed manner, and that was all that was needed. Not what we expected from City given their last performance in the CL against Barcelona but they can now breathe a sigh of relief having taken another step in the right direction.
