Sergio Aguero Continues Ridiculously Clinical Run in Late Win Over Southampton

For a moment there was a genuine feeling that Southampton might successfully protect their 1-0 lead at the Etihad Stadium and head home with the unlikeliest of three points on Saturday. That was until Sergio Aguero popped up with a 70th-minute equaliser and sent Manchester City on their way to a 2-1 victory.

The Saints were desperate to restore pride following their Leicester humbling and defended valiantly until Aguero broke their resistance, continuing his remarkable record against Southampton by connecting with Kyle Walker's cross. The defender then slotted home an 86th-minute winner to complete the comeback.

Amazingly, the Argentine striker has now scored nine goals from his ten Premier League shots on target, highlighting that he's just as clinical as ever by converting City's first effort on target and drawing level in the race for the Golden Boot.
