Phil Foden says Ilkay Gundogan's Man City title moment matches Sergio Aguero's iconic goal

Phil Foden was an 11-year-old fan behind the goal when Sergio Aguero scored the most iconic goal in Premier League history. And he never dreamed that, just over ten years on, he would be taking part in a last-day drama that almost matched those incredible scenes.

Foden won his fourth Premier League winner’s medal - and ninth major title overall - just six days ahead of his 22nd birthday. That means he, and several teammates, are already within three more triumphs of catching up Aguero and Fernandinho, whose 12 trophies each make them the most decorated players in the club’s history.

Foden has revealed in the past how he and his mum ended up spilling onto the pitch when Aguero scored his late, late winner against QPR to pip Manchester United for the title at the death. This time he was scrambling for the safety of the tunnel as fans poured on in celebration of yet another astonishing turnaround.

“We definitely don’t make it easy for ourselves do we?! To go two goals behind was very disappointing, but the character we showed to come back shows how far we have come as a team and how special we are.”

City were trailing to goals from Villa pair Matty Cash and Philippe Coutinho, and with Liverpool on their way to their own comeback win after conceding an early goal at home to Wolves, needed three goals to secure the crown, with 20 minutes left.
