Manchester City lost badly against Sporting in the Champions League, suffering their first European loss since April 2022 as a result of a terrible second half.
Phil Foden gave City the lead early on, but Sporting equalized through Viktor Gyokeres on the break despite controlling the first half and squandering several opportunities.
Sporting got a penalty 22 seconds after the restart after shocking City with a goal inside 20 seconds of the second half. Gyokeres added gloss to the scoreline by converting once more later. Erling Haaland added to Cityโs terrible night in Lisbon by slamming a penalty against the bar.

Haalandโs full-time activities
Despite having several shots and being in the perfect locations, Haalandโs shots are not going in. He had two or three outstanding attempts against Bournemouth but was unable to score, he had his second-highest predicted goals figure in a City shirt against Southampton but only managed to score one, and he appeared in the mood again at Sporting but missed many decent chances.
