Yet it was supposed to be an easy win for the Premier League giants. However, apart from Phil Foden’s opening goal, it was all Sporting CP who held their defensive line and controlled the proceedings even with just 27 per cent possession. Viktor Gyokeres scored a hattrick with two penalties in the second half to register an impressive win for his side.
