Raheem Sterling, Manchester City soccer striker takes England to the quarterfinals of Euro Soccer 2021 with his goal in the game against Germany. In that 2-0 game the second goal came from Harvey Kane.

The Guardian gives this story of Raheem growing up in a difficult neighborhood in Kingston, Jamaica. His mother, a nurse, moved to London after losing his father to gang violence. There he played for teams before he was 14, then moving to Liverpool Club, in the north of England. He showed real determination at an early age, and concern for kids growing up near Wembley stadium where he once lived, who had no chance to watch soccer or participate in the game.
