Raheem Sterling continued his fine form in the weekend against Huddersfield town and capped off a brilliant performance with a late winner at the John Smith's Stadium. It looked like Pep Guardiola's men were heading for their first defeat of the season when Christopher Schindler's header was deflected into his own net by Nicolas Otamendi right at the end of the first half.

However, Sterling had other plans and initiated the City comeback by winning a penalty in the 47th minute which was comfortably converted by Sergio Aguero. The 22-year-old completed the comeback when he scored, rather luckily after the ball looped in off him following a save by Jonas Lossl, in the 84th minute to give City all three points.

The goal took Sterling's tally to 12 goals in 18 appearances (all competitions) for the season; his best ever return in a single season.
