Sergio Aguero definitely went all-in with his predictions ahead of Manchester City’s Champions League clash with Real Madrid! Losing a $10,000 bet on his two-goals-first-half prediction was just the tip of the iceberg. His bold claim on the Som I Serem FCB Podcast about cutting off his testicles if Real Madrid beat City was an extreme statement that caught the attention of many—including former teammate Daniel Sturridge, who humorously questioned Aguero’s confidence.
Despite Haaland’s early goal and a promising 2-1 lead, City couldn’t hold onto the advantage, with Bellingham scoring a dramatic stoppage-time winner for Real Madrid. With the second leg just around the corner, Aguero’s loss of the bet might be the least of City’s concerns, as they face a tough challenge at the Santiago Bernabéu on February 19.
Do you think City has what it takes to turn things around in the second leg?
