Manchester City stumbled this Saturday at home against Chelsea and missed the opportunity to become champion. Agüero was partly to blame for the citizen stumble. With 1-0 on the scoreboard, the Argentine asked to take a penalty to make it 2-0. However, what could have been a historic goal turned into an anthological blunder. The Argentine took the penalty Panenka-style and goalkeeper Mendy, who stayed in the center of the goal, stopped it without problems, leaving one of the images of the day in world football. Hours later, Kun used his social media to apologize.
“I cannot help but apologize to my teammates, the coaching staff and the fans for today's penalty. It was a bad decision and I take responsibility “wrote the Argentine forward on his Twitter profile.
Agüero will leave Manchester City this summer after ten seasons at the English club. The Argentine is a legend for the citizen entity, and one of his wishes was to score the goal that would give the team the league title. Hence, it was asked to launch the penalty committed on Gabriel Jesús. However, his dream has turned into one of his worst moments since he arrived in Manchester.
Criticism is primed with Kun
After the penalty missed by the Argentine, the criticism intensified. One of the hardest and most striking was from the former Liverpool headquarters, Jamie carragher, who referred to the action in these terms: “The Panenka. The stink-bread. He stared at the coach like a naughty boy looks at the teacher at school.”
Mikah Richards, a former City defender, also expressed his opinion. “Devastation. I thought I was just going to mark him. I've cried here.”
