Sparkle in Sergio Agüero's Football career

Five straight wins helped City wipe out the eight-point deficit against United, and they went into the final days' fixtures leading on goal difference. Facing relegation-threatened Queens Park Rangers, City needed only to match or better United's result at Sunderland. By the 66th minute, QPR (despite having a player sent off) went ahead 2–1 against City, while United were 1–0 up against Sunderland. In response, manager Roberto Mancini sent on strikers Edin Džeko and Mario Balotelli in an attempt to get the two goals City now needed for the title. 5 minutes of injury time begun for City with their and United's match scores still constant. In the 92nd minute, Džeko equalised for City for a glimmer of hope, but United soon finished their own game with a victory. In the 95th minute, Agüero, receiving the ball from Balotelli, drove into the penalty area and placed a powerful low shot into the corner of the goal, clinching the win and the title for Manchester City. Agüero's goal sent the City of Manchester Stadium into a frenzy and he was dragged to the floor jubilantly by his City team-mates. Vincent Kompany recalled that Agüero was crying on the floor, and when asked if he cried during the Manchester City parade the following day, Agüero stated: "Yeah, a little".
