Sporting Lisbon's 4-1 win came as a shock to spectators and even those who watched the game. The statistics - except the score - showed that Man City were completely dominant. The visitors scored in the fourth minute through Phil Foden.

Man City had over 70% possession. The English team had 20 shots, 6 of which were on target, while Sporting Lisbon only had 9 shots in the whole match. However, the home team did better in the most important step, which was taking advantage of opportunities.

Viktor Gyokeres - a striker who has attracted the attention of many big teams - continued to prove his worth with 3 goals against Man City from 5 shots. The Swede equalized in the first half and successfully converted 2 penalties in the second half of the match. The remaining goal for Sporting Lisbon was scored by Maximiliano Araujo early in the second half.

Man City also had a chance to score from a penalty. However, Erling Haaland failed to take advantage. This is the third consecutive match that the Norwegian striker has failed to score.
