Making only his eighth Premier League appearance, the young Spaniard expertly kept Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah at bay, with a performance that left his team-mate proud.
“Eric’s a fantastic talent,” said Sterling.
“I really like him. He’s composed on the ball. He’s not the tallest of players, but he gives everything and fights.

Sterling also shared his thoughts on City’s efforts against the Reds, fitness and ending the season on a high.
