Manchester City legend Sergio Aguero placed a $10,000 bet on his team’s Champions League clash with Real Madrid.
Despite predicting at least two goals in the first half, Aguero ended up losing the bet as only one goal was scored before halftime.
Despite City taking the lead, Real Madrid fought back and ultimately won the match 3-2.
The 36-year-old, who scored 260 goals in 390 games for City, had also made an outrageous promise on the Som I Serem FCB Podcast ahead of the game:
“Real Madrid cannot beat Man City. If they do, I will cut off my testicles.”
Former City teammate Daniel Sturridge was left stunned by his confidence, joking:
“I’m sceptical of that spectacle. It doesn’t sound good to me!”
Aguero may have lost his bet, but City’s Champions League hopes are now on the line as they face a tough second-leg showdown at the Santiago Bernabéu.
