EPL: Aguero Breaks Record In City’s 6-1 Victory Over Aston Villa

Sergio Aguero hit a hat-trick to become the Premier League’s all-time leading overseas goalscorer as Manchester City hammered Aston Villa to leave Dean Smith’s men struggling in the relegation zone.

The Argentine took his tally to 177 league goals to surpass Thierry Henry’s mark as a brace from Riyad Mahrez and Gabriel Jesus’ strike helped earn a 6-1 win.

With Brazilian forward Wesley ruled out for the season, Dean Smith named an eleven without a recognised striker, partnering Jack Grealish and Anwar El Ghazi in a makeshift frontline.
