Sergio Aguero Apologises for Penalty Miss Against Chelsea

Femi Ashekun/

Manchester City striker, Sergio Aguero, has taken to social media to apologise for the Panenka penalty miss in this evening’s 2-1 loss

to Chelsea.

In a tweet on his verified handle, Aguero apologised to his teammates, staff and supporters for “missing the penalty”, admitting it’s a “bad decision” that he takes “full responsibility” for.

It looked as though the Citizens could put the tie to bed as Gabriel Jesus won a penalty just moments after Raheem Sterling’s opener, as he was brought down by Billy Gilmour.

Aguero immediately stepped up to take the penalty, but the world-class striker flunked the opportunity as he casually played the ball into the hands of Edouard Mendy.

Chelsea went on to equalise in the 63rd minute and then win it in the final moments of the match.
