With the referee's three whistles, the match officially ended.
Six to one!
Sporting Lisbon stepped on the corpse of Serie A powerhouse Lazio with an eleven-point lead to top the group and advance to the Champions League Round of Sixteen, ahem... Round of Sixteen.
There's only one character difference between those two appellations, but the former is quite unlucky.
In the end, Ibrahimovic failed to score a goal, he didn't even manage to get an assist.
But this brilliant victory was enough to increase the market value of every Sporting Lisbon player.
"A hattrick of goals plus a brace of assists! Sporting Lisbon's core Deng Kai turns Lazio fans against their own team at home!"
"Invincible! Deng Kai leads Sporting Lisbon to three consecutive Champions League victories after his comeback!"
"Eagles Fall! Lazio fans switch sides, the season almost prematurely ends!"
"In a six-to-one match, Serie A's 'Seven Sisters' are no more! Deng Kai kicks off a new era in European football!"
