His first goal may have been a gift from the Monaco goalkeeper, Danijel Subasic, but Sergio Agüero had every right to feel one was due. The Argentina striker had enough pressure and distractions coming into the game, with his starting role threatened by the arrival of Gabriel Jesus – he only returned because of the youngster’s departure with injury – and six games without a goal. In the Champions League knockout stages it was 522 minutes without a goal at kick-off. To compound his problems, Agüero’s first sight of the Monaco goal resulted in huge controversy when he was booked for a perceived dive over Subasic when a red card and penalty could easily have been the outcome. A weak-minded forward might have retreated into his shell.
