Ratings
Aesthetically Pleasing 21/30
Aguero is usually just there to finish the chances, but sometimes we see his prowess at dribbling which is impressive to see.
Technical Difficulty 20/30
The final touch before the finish is superb as he takes the ball beyond the defender on the stretch, allowing the room to score.
Uniqueness 12/20
It's a nice dribble but there's little in the way of a challenge and others have done it better.
Importance 6/10
Hat-trick goal in an early season game away at Watford.
Standard of Opposition 6/10
Watford
FootballCritic Verdict
The Watford defenders don't cover themselves in glory, but Aguero does have this magnificent ability to score out of nowhere.
