‘Legend’ Sergio Aguero makes history as Man City hit Villa for six
It may be too late to salvage City’s defence of the Premier League title but Man City moves ahead of Leicester into second.
Birmingham — Pep Guardiola said Sergio Aguero’s legendary status had grown again after becoming the Premier League’s top-scoring foreign player with a hat-trick as Manchester City thrashed Aston Villa 6-1 on Sunday.
It may be too late to salvage City’s defence of the Premier League title as they remain 14 points behind runaway leaders Liverpool, who also have a game in hand, but led by Aguero the champions moved ahead of Leicester into second to show they will not give up the chase.
Aguero eclipsed Thierry Henry’s record as the top-scoring non-English player in the Premier League by taking his tally to 177 goals and also surpassed Alan Shearer’s league record for hat-tricks with his 12th since joining City from Atletico Madrid in 2011.
