Sporting Lisbon Deliver Shock 4-1 Defeat to Manchester City in Champions League with Viktor Gyokeres Hat-trick

Viktor Gyokeres’ hat-trick propelled Sporting Lisbon to a stunning 4-1 victory over Manchester City in the UEFA Champions League, marking a triumphant farewell for manager Ruben Amorim.

City’s Phil Foden opened the scoring, but Gyokeres equalized before halftime. After the break, Maximiliano Araujo’s stunning goal and Gyokeres’ two penalties sealed the win.

Despite dominating possession, Manchester City struggled to contain Sporting’s counterattacks. Erling Haaland’s penalty attempt hit the crossbar, while Gyokeres’ third goal from the spot capped an incredible night.

Pep Guardiola conceded his team’s subpar performance, saying, “We were not at our best, but we have to overcome this situation.”

The loss highlights Manchester City’s vulnerabilities ahead of upcoming challenges, while Sporting Lisbon celebrates a historic win under Amorim’s guidance.
