Lisbon - Sporting Lisbon coach Ruben Amorim is relying on red-hot striker Viktor Gyokeres (right) to land a blow on future rivals Manchester City, in his final Champions League match at the helm today.
-
The coach has agreed to take over at Manchester United on 11 November to replace the sacked Erik ten Hag, after coaching three final matches with the Portuguese champions.
The first of those was a thumping 5-1 league win over Estrela Amadora on Friday in which the unstoppable Gyokeres scored four times.
It took the striker to 16 league goals in 10 appearances, while he also has two strikes in three Champions League games this season.
"It wasn't a normal situation (because of Amorim's departure) but we handled it well and won 5-1. It was a good reaction from us, we have to remain professional and do things the right way," explained Gyokeres.
