Sergio Aguero claimed he would cut off his testicles if Real Madrid beat Manchester City, while he also lost a big chunk of cash on the game.
City legend Aguero was remarkably confident about the game beforehand, despite his former club’s below-par form this season and Real sitting top of La Liga.
City twice took the lead through Erling Haaland, either side of a Kylian Mbappe goal and looked in a strong position with 10 minutes to play, 2-1 ahead.
The defeat was another remarkable event in City’s unpredictable season which has seen them dramatically fall from the standards set over the last few years.
This year, I accept when the opponent is better but at the moment I’m not good enough to give composure to the team to manage these situations.
