GOAL! Manchester City 5-1 Leicester (Aguero)

90' - Sergio Aguero bags his fourth goal of the game and it's the best of the lot!

The Argentine collects the ball from Phil Foden 25 yards from goal before turning and rifling a shot in off the helpless Kasper Schmeichel's crossbar.

Simply sensational.
