Watch: Sterling eviscerates defender with stepover, helps clinch City win

Have a day, Raheem Sterling.
The electric Manchester City winger was a one-man wrecking crew during Monday's highly entertaining clash with Bournemouth, the 22-year-old scoring once and setting up another in the Citizens' 2-0 win.
While his 29th-minute tally was simply a tap-in, the young Englishman turned on the style to create his side's second goal, ruining Adam Smith with a lightning-quick stepover before sending the ball in for Sergio Aguero.
The Argentine ultimately didn't get credit for the goal - Tyrone Mings helped steer the ball into the net - but regardless, Sterling's wizardry on the wing was easily the best part of the sequence.
