Sterling Bags First Hat-Trick Of EPL Season As Man City Maul West Ham 5-0

Raheem Sterling scored the first hat-trick of the 2019/2020 Premier League season as defending champions Manchester City started the new campaign with a 5-0 victory over West Ham United in Saturday’s fixture at the London Stadium.

Gabriel Jesus and substitute Sergio Aguero were also on target for Pep Guardiola’s men.

City went in front after 25 minutes. Kyle Walker was released down the right flank and after reaching the byline, the full-back pulled the ball for Gabriel Jesus to convert from six yards out after reacting sharply to a deflection from Issa Diop.

The Citizens doubled their lead six minutes after the break with Sterling sliding the ball home after he was played through by Kevin De Bruyne.

    Proper football player. Gradually becoming premiership Messi. I love his professionalism. One of the few black players that is so well focus, full of belief,humble n very very hard working. Never a show off guy. Not surprised at all the way he has so improved over the years,despite all attempt by English press n white fans trying to destroy him. He gives his all to the English national team but speaking to lots of White English, they still tell you, Sterling is not good enough for 3lions.
