City’s all-time leading goalscorer Aguero once again proved to be the Gunners’ nemesis. The Argentinian – who moved on to 199 goals for the club with the 19th-minute opener – has now scored in each of his last five appearances against Arsene Wenger’s men in all competitions, a feat he has previously achieved against both Tottenham and Sunderland. After easing Shkodran Mustafi off the ball, the 29-year-old showed his trademark killer instinct with a calm lob over David Ospina for his 30th goal of the season.
