London: Leroy Sane and Raheem Sterling struck in the second half as Manchester City came from behind to beat Arsenal 2-1 in the Premier League yesterday.

Theo Walcott put the Gunners into a fifth-minute lead.

Sane equalised within moments of the restart, his first goal for the club, and Sterling put City ahead after 71 minutes before Kevin De Bruyne hit the post.

It was a welcome return to form for City, who cut the gap to Chelsea to seven points and climbed to second in the table.
