Agüero's Five-Spot Lights Up Newcastle
Predicting a straight-up result for Manchester City v Newcastle United was a no-brainer, really, but they way it came about was newsworthy.
Sergio Agüero transformed himself into a footballing god amidst the carnage of City's 6-1 smash-a-thon. And no, that's not a Fifa 16 scoreline.
Before getting into the beatdown, the Sky Blues allowed their guests to have one shining moment, and Aleksandar Mitrović got the honors:
Always good to see some ping pong on the pitch.
Then, the Sergio Agüero Show began:
Gotta say, though, that David Silva deserves equal billing on that one.
Man City took the lead for good early in the second half, thanks to Agüero and a bit of luck:
Newcastle must be wishing they could face Chelsea again.
To complete his hat trick, Agüero pulled off a trick he learned from Lionel Messi. A lob.
If horseshoes ever gets a kicking givision, dude will have yet another souce of fame.
It was about time the Argentine international took a breather, so the spotlight shifted to City's record-breaking signing, Kevin De Bruyne, who justified his contract for the umpteenth time already:
Indeed, dosh very well doled.
Back to the day's main event: everything Agüero touched was turning to gold:
Agüero rejected the attention of Real Madrid this summer, and as the Spanish giant's check-writing fingers often get itchy on highlight days like this. City will no doubt hear from them again.
