Sergio AGUERO misses penalty, retakes it, scores for Manchester City

Sergio AGUERO scored his first goal of the season for Manchester City in their 5-0 win against West Ham United.

Despite starting the game on the bench, AGUERO still managed to score but not without controversy. Manchester City’s all time leading goal scorer was brought on as a substitute and Pep GUARDIOLA’s team were awarded a penalty.

AGUERO took his penalty but had it saved. The referee called for VAR and found the goalkeeper was off his line before AGUERO took his shot. The penalty was taken again and this time the Argentina man made no mistake in dispatching and made it 4-0 for the visitors.

Manuel LANZINI started the match for West Ham while Nicolas OTAMENDI was an unused substitute.
