Manchester City are on the brink of suffering a third consecutive defeat across all competitions on Tuesday.
Pep Guardiola’s men opened the scoring against Sporting in the Champions League via Phil Foden after only four minutes. But then, it all went downhill.
Sporting striker Viktor Gyokeres netted his 21st goal in 17 games to make it 1-1, but the hosts shocked the Premier League champions after the break.
Maximilian Araujo sliced through Manchester City and completed the comeback after just 20 seconds before Gyokeres secured a brace from the penalty spot two minutes later, with Pep Guardiola’s side shipping three goals in just 11 minutes either side of the interval.
Could this be an early showing of what’s to come in the Premier League under incoming Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim?
