Benfica a suffered a second straight loss in the Champions League after a deserved 1-0 defeat against Bayern Munich.

The Bavarians were dominant from start to finish at Allianz Arena and could have easily won by a healthier margin.

The German club got their goal in the 67th minute, Leroy Sané and Harry Kane combining to set up Jamal Musiala who headed past Anatoliy Trubin.

Bruno Lage’s defensive tactics didn’t have the desired effect in Munich, his team a shadow of the side that regularly boss the ball against inferior opponents in Portugal.

It’s a night that will go down in history. The final home game of Sporting’s greatest ever coach was not going to script when Phil Foden scored early and Manchester City threatened to overwhelm the nervy hosts.

But before half time Viktor Gyökeres made up for a bad early miss to score the equaliser then two goals in three minutes straight after the break from Maxi Araújo and Gyökeres again (penalty) put Sporting in control.

Erling Haaland missed a penalty to get City back into the game. At the other end of the pitch no such problems for Gyökeres who completed his hat-trick from the spot to make it three wins and a draw for Sporting in four Champions League games this season. Tom Kundert reports from Alvalade. 

Porto have made a habit of hitting the jackpot when scouting centre-forwards over recent decades. Going back to Mário Jardel, fellow Brazilian Hulk, or Colombian duo Falcao and Jackson Martínez, the Dragons fans have got used to having a prolific front man to help bring domestic and international success to the club.

All signs so far suggest Samu Aghehowa, the striker formerly known as Samuel Omorodion, could be a worthy successor to those club cult heroes.
