Sporting Lisbon fought back against the flow of play, but a swift play by the home team gave them an equalizer. Gyokeres sprints into the area after Quenda, who is in deep midfield, makes a deft, weighted through pass. The striker flicks the ball past Ederson towards the far left corner after eluding defender Simpson-Pusey.
Phil Foden gave Manchester City the lead early on. The England international weaved his way into the penalty area from the left when Sporting midfielder Morita mishandled possession, prompting Foden to jump on the ball. Then Foden's left-footed shot went past the goalie after he had precisely seen the gap between two defenders.
Manchester City had 12 shots and 71 percent of the possession, so they could have easily added additional goals in the first half of the encounter. Sporting, in contrast, only had three efforts, but they are utilizing their possession as well as possible.
Against Manchester City, Sporting Lisbon overcame a deficit to grab the lead. After 20 seconds following the restart, the home team scores their second goal thanks to another fast play. Araujo slots the ball beyond Ederson to complete an incredible team move. Gyokeres went up for the penalty attempt and made no mistake, hitting his tremendous strike towards the bottom right corner as Sporting came charging in the second half.
