City looked shaky at times, struggling to break down Sporting's solid defense. The home side took the lead in the 15th minute when a clever free-kick routine caught City off guard. Then, just before half-time, they doubled their advantage with a brilliant goal from Pedro Gonçalves, who showed some incredible skill to beat the City defenders.

Despite going two goals down, City didn't give up. They came out in the second half looking for a way back into the game. But Ruben Dias and the Sporting defense held firm, and City just couldn't find a way to get past them. City finally got on the scoresheet in the 70th minute with a penalty from Kevin De Bruyne, but it was too little, too late. Sporting held on for a deserved victory, giving them a crucial three points in their Champions League group.
