Leroy Sane continued his excellent run of goalscoring form from Germany's recent fixtures - now has five goals in his last four starts.

The German international linked up well alongside Raheem Sterling and David Silva in attacking areas, displaying patient build-up as the visitors passed their way into danger zones with seeming ease. At times, West Ham defenders just couldn't get near them and his adventurous runs into the box proved too much for Pablo Zabaleta to deal with.

He showed his unselfishness and good decision-making too, which has sometimes been criticised in the past. If not for heavy touches, passes and more fortune during the latter stages of the in the second half, he would have created even more goals!

Three key passes, 84.6% pass accuracy (52 passes), five dribbles completed, an assist and well-taken brace – all in a good day's work for the talented German forward, who has stepped up after a sluggish start to the campaign.
