This was certainly one fairy tale evening for Manchester City and their Argentinian star Sergio Agüero. "El Kun" managed to score four goals against Tottenham Hotspur, tying Chelsea's Diego Costa as the Premier League's top scorer.
Agüero started his goal scoring fiesta after thirteen minutes with a fine strike. Nevertheless, celebration times did not last long for the Citizens, since Christian Eriksen managed to equalize just two minutes later. When the clock hit the 20-minute mark, Agüero scored from the penalty spot his second goal of the game, and when everything was set for his hat-trick before the first half ended, "El Kun" missed another penalty with a classy save by French keeper Hugo Lloris.
After the halftime break, Tottenham had the chance to equalize once more, after the ref gave them a questionable penalty kick. Roberto Soldado took the chance, but Joe Hart saved the lead for Manchester City, denying the Spanish striker's shot. Just six minutes later, Agüero completed the hat-trick with a little payback included, scoring a new penalty, which seemed to be a replica of the one he scored earlier. To top his marvelous match, Agüero dribbled inside the box and finished with a classy left-footed strike for his fourth goal of the evening after 74 minutes. With his four strikes, Sergio Agüero became Manchester City's all time top scorer in the history of the Premier League.
How did fans react to Agüero's breath-taking performance? Have a look!
A special thanks to my teammates and City's fans. It's a pride to become City's Max goalscorer in Premier League's history.

Costa is a player that waits for someone to create chances and he taps it in, Aguero creates his own chances. Kun over Costa all day.
