What happened in the first leg?

In a nutshell, City turned on the style and Sporting could not live with them. Josep Guardiola's side burst out the blocks and were 4-0 up by half-time thanks to two goals from Bernardo Silva and one apiece for Riyad Mahrez and Phil Foden. Raheem Sterling added a fifth after the break, leaving Sporting to ponder where they go from here.
