There was little relief when Raheem Sterling tucked home against Paris Saint-Germain, a crucial goal which hauled Manchester City level in the Champions League. Instead, as he wheeled away to celebrate, his face sported sheer jubilation.
It was far from the tidiest strike he has scored in his career, but the forward knows they all count and will understandably be delighted with his recent hot streak which has led to him netting three goals in his last three City appearances.
Kyle Walker laid off to his team-mate after Ilkay Gundogan's inch-perfect ball, and Sterling did the rest, just about converting beyond Keylor Navas to equalise.
