In what was a high-quality, high-octane encounter at the Joie Stadium, City had fallen behind to a first half Leipzig penalty.
But we turned the match on its head with a superb second half showing capped by wonderful team goals from Kane Tylor and Josh Adam.
The result ensured we will finish top of Group G and so progress straight through to the last 16 for a second successive season.
And for the head coach it was another signpost as to his young players’ growing maturity and development.
“I’m feeling drained so I can only imagine how the players feel! They put so much into that they deserve that sense of euphoria at the end,” Barry-Murphy declared.
“It was such a competitive high-level game. I really enjoyed it.
“You always have a sense of jeopardy with a team like Leipzig but we showed great maturity in how we handled it and I was very proud of the players.
“You are going to face games where the challenge increases in the Youth League.
“It’s a game that will really benefit our players in their development moving forward.”
