Raheem Sterling insists Manchester City are “hungry” for Champions League success and have the “energy and fight” needed to progress in the competition. City claimed a deserved place in the quarter-finals with a 2-1 victory against Real Madrid at the Etihad Stadium on Friday. As City look for a breakthrough first win in the Champions League, Sterling said: “We were extra hungry (against Real Madrid). That will make the difference and decide whether we progress or not.”After the win over Madrid, City boss Pep Guardiola singled out Jesus for particular praise. Sterling joined his manager in his appreciation of Jesus, but emphasised that the striker was not merely a back-up for Aguero.
