Manchester City Beat Brighton In Style

Manchester City eased to victory over Brighton as Sergio Aguero hit two goals to continue his record of scoring in all four of his team’s Premier League games this season.

Belgium midfielder Kevin de Bruyne set the reigning champions on their way when he poked David Silva’s low cross over the line after just 68 seconds.

Aguero finished off a free-flowing move to double the lead before producing a sumptuous curl from the edge of the penalty after half-time.

Substitute Bernardo Silva completed the scoring with his second touch after replacing David Silva.

However, City lost French defender Aymeric Laporte to injury. The former Athletic Bilbao player was carried off on a stretcher after a collision with Adam Webster before being taken to hospital.
