Gyokeres et le Sporting ridiculisent Manchester City – C1 – J4 ​​- Sporting CP-Manchester City (4-1)

Buts: Root (37^e et 49^e SP and 80^e SP) and Araujo (46^e) for le Sporting // Foden (4^e) for Citizens

The cyborg 2.0.

Surprised at the start, Sporting CP has offered a magnificent farewell gift to its coach Rúben Amorimwho directed his last match in Portugal against Manchester City (4-1) before heading to United. For its future neighbors, it is a third setback in a row for the Skybluesfor whom nothing is going well anymore.

Phil Foden had however frozen the José-Alvalade stadium from the start after having himself recovered the ball high (0-1, 4^e), but despite a clear domination, the Citizens do not take shelter. And they pay dearly for it. Launched full axis, Viktor Gyökeres dives his ball perfectly to bring his team back to height (1-1, 37^e).

Haaland is a radical ringardise

Simple hitch for the English champions? Not really, since they sink once and for all in a few minutes after returning from the locker room. Maximiliano Araujo puts Sporting in front in the first action of the second act (2-1, 46^e)before Joško Gvardiol pushed past Francisco Trincão to allow Gyökeres to score again from the penalty spot (3-1, 49^e). An exercise in which Erling Haaland fails, sending a missile over the bar, before seeing his Swedish alter ego score a hat-trick, still from eleven meters (4-1, 80^e). Here is Manchester City's biggest defeat on the European scene in six years, as doubts begin to arise in the north of England.

Looking forward to the next duels between Guardiola and Amorim.
