At 4 o'clock in the morning on November 6, Beijing time, in the fourth round of the Champions League stage, Manchester City challenged Manchester United's new coach Amorim's Sporting de Portugal away.
In the first half, Foden blitzed to break the deadlock on the pitch, and then Jokres equalised with a one-handed volley to draw 1-1 at half-time; In the second half, Araujo volleyed to overtake the score, Gvardiol sent a point, Jokres scored a brace with a penalty, B made a point, Haaland lost a point, Nunez sent a point, and Jokres scored a hat-trick again.
In the end, Sporting Portugal sent Manchester City a 4-1 defeat in all competitions for the third time in a row.
Sporting Portugal vs Manchester City, Amorim lined up a 3421 formation, and the striker Yokres broke forward, with a starting value of 282 million euros;Pep Guardiola lined up the 4141 formation, Haaland rushed forward, Nunez, B, Foden, and Savinho formed four midfielders, Kovacic was a single midfielder, Gvardiol, Akanji, Pusi, and Lewis formed a back four, and Ederson was in goal, starting at 735 million euros。
This battle is a typical counterattack battle & defeat the strong with the weak! Portugal had less than 30% possession, but the counter-attack was very sharp; City had empty possession and no creativity. It turns out that Haaland is an uncreative "pie striker", without a good midfielder, Haaland is a second-rate striker, embarrassed to take on a big job. Haaland also missed a penalty and scored 6.1 points after the game, the lowest score for Manchester City's start + substitute. In stark contrast to Haaland, Jokreis, scored a hat-trick. This time against Manchester City's hat-trick, Manchester United seems to be spending money to buy striker Jokres in the winter window.
Sporting 4-1 Manchester City, testing the quality of Amorim and Jokres; Manchester City have suffered three consecutive defeats in all competitions, and Pep Guardiola and Kevin De Bruyne are both contract years, and the Manchester City hierarchy needs to determine the future quickly, otherwise it will affect the team's combat effectiveness.
At full-time, Sporting managed just 27% possession and a total of 9 attempts at goal with 6 of them on target; Manchester City had a total of 20 shots on goal with 6 on target.
