Sergio Aguero leads the charge for Manchester City over Stoke
4-1 away victory continues new manager Pep Guardiola’s unbeaten start in the English Premier League; Liverpool rocked in 2-0 loss at promoted Burnley
Sergio Aguero and Nolito scored two goals each as Manchester City won 4-1 at Stoke City in the Premier League on Saturday to continue manager Pep Guardiola’s 100 per cent start in English football.
Aguero struck twice in the first half to put City in control and although Bojan Krkic pulled one back for Stoke with a penalty, substitutes Kelechi Iheanacho and Nolito combined late on to secure the three points.
Guardiola warned there was plenty more to come from his side. “We have only had one month together – there is time to get better,” he said.
“In the first half, we played good and just missed the last pass. We arrived many times in the box with one against one.”
“We created a lot of counter-attacks in the second half – good situations – but the last pass was not good,” Guardiola added. “We have to try to finish the action.”
