Missing two penalties in a game is quite strange. But missing two shots from the spot inside 20 minutes is even stranger.
Today, Sergio Aguero managed to shock the world -and his coach- during the first half of the UCL play-off match between the Citizens and Steaua Bucuresti by accomplishing that "feat".
Aguero's first shot came after eight minutes, and goalkeeper Florin Nita was able to put his hands to it. Twelve minutes later, Manchester City was awarded yet another shot from the spot, and Aguero failed to convert by sending it over the crossbar.

Aguero hasn't been as successful as you would expect when taking penalty kicks."El Kun" has missed four out of his last five attempts with the Sky Blues, including today's misfired shots.
Eventually, Aguero would save his pride by scoring Manchester City's second goal of the evening, but fans kept on trolling the striker for his previous antics. Here are some of their best comments.
