Leroy Sane was electric on Sunday afternoon
While the home supporters heaped praise on their former boss, defending champions City were not in a sympathetic mood themselves.Pep Guardiolas looked to be denied a penalty in the first half when Terence Kongolo appeared to foul Raheem Sterling – but referee Andre Marriner ignored the visitors’ appeals.However, the defending champions did not have to wait long to take the lead.Danilo tried his luck with a shot from distance in the 18th minute and it deflected in off Huddersfield defender Christopher Schindler, wrong-footing goalkeeper Jonas Lossl. City took the game beyond their hosts in the first 11 minutes of the second half.Leroy Sane crossed for Raheem Sterling to head in the visitors’ second goal in the 54th minute.It was 3-0 two minutes later when Sane received the ball from Aguero and advanced before providing a tidy low finish.Raheem Sterling heads home4

Star Man – Leroy Sane

The Germany winger endured a tough start to the season, but his perseverance and quality is really starting to shine through as the season progresses.Despite being on the left as a naturally left-footed player, the 23-year-old is never one-dimensional and is always dangerous on the ball.His assist for Sterling and composed finish took the game away from Huddersfield and made what could have been a difficult afternoon far simpler.

How on earth Raheem Sterling did not get a penalty after being brought down by Kongolo remains to be seen.The City winger was in on the right hand side of the box before the Terriers defender clumsily brought him down, leaving referee Andre Marriner with no choice…or so it seemed.Somehow, Sterling was not given a foul and it is moments like this which, had the game been level in the last minute, which can make or break seasons.
