Third match of the year's Champions League. Second goal. Viktor Gyökeres continues to show fine goal form.

The Swedish star striker got past on the edge, cut in, rounded the goalkeeper and placed it 2–0 for his Sporting Lissabon away against Sturm Graz.

I tried to get a good angle to shoot. I felt that the best thing to do was to wait a bit, get the goalkeeper down and then put it in, says Gyökeres in Viaplay's interview.

The goal was the last of the match. Thus, Sporting has seven points after the three initial matches, two wins and one draw.
