Raheem Sterling’s winner against Bournemouth for Manchester City saw the England man make history as he became the first player to score in his first six appearances against a single opponent in the Premier League.
National Daily learnt that the 23-year-old helped the Sky Blues on to a 3-1 win after Callum Wilson’s strike had cancelled out Bernardo Silva’s early effort in the first half, with Ilkay Gundogan adding a third late on to seal the deal.
