Dimitar Berbatov admits that he will never forget his final moment in the Manchester United dressing room, which coincided with Sergio Aguero’s most iconic Manchester City goal.
Dimitar Berbatov said: “I will never forget him for that goal – the one goal that will stay forever in the minds of all Reds for the wrong reasons – the goal that won City the title. He disappointed us greatly, but it was a great moment for City.I remember it well. I was at the Stadium of Light with my teammates, Sir Alex Ferguson and the coaching staff. We were waiting and waiting for the final whistle from the Etihad to confirm us as champions, until Aguero changed the destiny of the Premier League. It’s the moment that he will be forever known for. I remember when we would come up against City, the pre-match and half-time talks were, always, about paying attention to Aguero, because he can score goals that you don’t expect. He was one of the true greats. He’s in the top three best players in the Premier League history. There have been a lot of foreign players to grace football in England and the players that come straight into my mind for their greatness are Thierry Henry, Eric Cantona, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergio Aguero.”
