No stars, no problem.
Manchester City is playing today’s UEFA Champion’s League match with Sevilla without David Silva, Sergio Aguero or Samir Nasri. That didn’t bother Raheem Sterling, who put City ahead just seven minutes into Tuesday’s match.

Playing in their neon greens, Sterling took a low pass from Fernandinho on the left side of the Sevilla box, and booted a low shot under the Sevilla keeper.
Three minutes later, City doubled their lead when Fernandinho got a goal of his own. After a Bony shot was tipped by Sevilla keeper Rico, Fernandinho flew into the action and headed the ball home.
