Viktor Gyökeres recently missed Sweden's national team gathering due to injury concerns.

But on Saturday, he was back on the football pitch. He scored two goals, both on penalties, when Sporting Lisbon defeated Estrela Amadora 3–0 in the Portuguese league.

Gyökeres was also behind Geovany Quenda's 2–0 goal.

The Swedish star striker is up to 30 league goals this season, one more than he scored last season.
