Sterling marked his maiden Arsenal start following his transfer deadline day loan move from Chelsea with a second-half strike in the third-round tie at the Emirates.
The 29-year-old will hope his goal marks the start of a revival after a disappointing two-year spell at Chelsea.
"He was great. He's started to show glimpses of what he can do. Physically, he needs to get to the level we require, but it was a massive step today," Gunners boss Mikel Arteta said.
Arteta made seven changes from the 2-2 draw at English Premier League champions Manchester City on Sept 22, including giving goalkeeper Porter his debut in place of the injured David Raya. Aged 16 years and 72 days old, Porter is the youngest player ever to start for Arsenal, surpassing the previous record holder Cesc Fabregas, who was 16 years and 177 days when he played against Rotherham United in 2003.
