Shortly after Gundogan had netted in the 86th minute, the England international performed a number of step-overs near the corner flag in order to run the clock down, prompting cheers of ‘Ol’ from the City supporters.Midfielder Mata took exception to this and frantically waved at Sterling, before promptly telling him to ‘show a little bit of respect’.Even his own manager Guardiola, was left unimpressed and reprimanded the player on the pitch at full-time for his apparent showboating.He [Guardiola] doesnt want us to disrespect anyone. I was surprised,” he told the Times.2

Pep Guardiola confronted Sterling on the pitch at full-time

“I was keeping the ball in the corner. I can understand if we had lost the ball, and theyd gone down the other end, but I am trying to waste time, attract a foul.“I wasnt trying to take the mickey out of them that they have lost. Thats not my thing.“Juan Mata just said, show a little bit of respect. I wasnt trying to disrespect them.“I wouldnt. I was just trying to keep the ball in the corner and entertain the fans at the same time.Sterling has been in excellent form for City this season and netted for the sixth consecutive match in the 3-1 victory over AFC Bournemouth.
