When everyone was doubting whether Amorim could land in the Premier League and lead Manchester United, he gave the answer with a 4-1 that shocked European football. In the early morning of the 6th, Beijing time, Amorim led Sporting Portugal to defeat the Premier League hegemon Manchester City 4:1 in the fourth round of the Champions League, which was the most memorable gift he gave to his old club before switching to Manchester United.

Last week, Manchester United quickly signed Sporting Portugal boss Amorim after sacking Ten Hag, for which they did not hesitate to pay £16 million in liquidated damages. To be honest, Amorim is not as famous in European football as Ten Hag, and the "Red Devils" rashly signed a contract, will it be another bamboo basket for nothing? This confused everyone who cared about Manchester United, but a Champions League match in the early morning of the 6th dispelled people's doubts to a certain extent.
After signing with Manchester United, Amorim has promised to take charge after the international break in mid-November, so this Champions League match can be considered his farewell game at the home of Sporting de Portugal. His opponents, Manchester City, have seen a sudden dip in form recently, not only being knocked out by Tottenham Hotspur in the English League Cup, but also losing to Bournemouth in the Premier League last week. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Amorim to overcome the "Red Devils'" century-old enemy, how shocking it will be to the new owner!
Manchester City still can't get the strongest squad in this game, and the injury of the new "Mr. Golden Ball" Rodri has too much impact on this team, and De Bruyne has been in poor health and can only sit on the bench and wait for the opportunity. These two big players were supposed to be the pillars of Manchester City, and the impact of their absence was too great. Even so, Guardiola is still a bit of a big deal, he sent Kovacic to play as a lone midfielder in Rodri's absence, and that's not all, and also arranged a 19-year-old young central defender Pusi at the back, in general, Manchester City are burying mines everywhere and could detonate at any time.
Foden's fourth-minute goal further paralyzed Pep Guardiola, who he believes Sporting is nothing more than that. In the next game, Amorim's favorite centre-forward Djekereish stole Haaland from the limelight, scoring a single goal and two penalties to complete the "hat-trick", while Haaland missed a penalty and did not score anything.
With Amorim taking over at Manchester United, Djekereish's future will also take a turn for the better, with reports that Amorim intends to ask United to sign the Swedish striker, and it now appears that if a deal is made in the winter, United will have the same sharp attackers as city rivals Manchester City.
The defeat of Manchester City is undoubtedly the best "vote" that Amorim gave to Manchester United, and at the darkest moment of the future of the "Red Devils", Amorim used his wisdom and courage to leave the last fortune of Portuguese sporting, and also gave Manchester United unlimited hope.
