The Argentine international attained a couple of historic landmarks in the day's encounter.

Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero successfully entered the Premier League's history book for his heroics in Sunday's encounter with Aston Villa. The Argentine forward scored a hat-trick to break two existing league records in the Citizen's 6-1 cruise inside Villa Park.

In what was a resounding win for Man City, Aguero found his way onto the scoresheet in the 28th minute after Riyad Mahrez had grabbed a two-goal advantage for the visitors. The 31-year-old striker fired home from outside Villa's penalty to make it 3-0 in the 28th minute before Jesus tapped in City's fourth.

Inside the 58th minute, Aguero grabbed his second of the day with a neat finish before completing his hat-trick in the 81st minute. Anwar El Ghazi pulled one back for the hosts through a spot-kick in the 91st minute.

Significantly, Sergio Aguero broke two Premier League records with his hat-trick against Aston Villa. The Manchester City all-time top goalscorer passed Thierry Henry's overseas player landmark of 175 goals and Alan Shearer's hat-trick record.

At the moment, he is tied at fourth on the all-time list alongside Frank Lampard with 177 goals while his hat-trick tally stands at 12.
