Sergio Aguero gives 'exciting' Man City reason why Liverpool can't be ruled out of Premier League title race

Former Manchester City forward Sergio Aguero has refused to rule Liverpool out of this season's Premier League title race - insisting the Citizens' last-gasp triumph in 2012 proves anything is possible.

Trailing arch-rivals Manchester United by eight points, Roberto Mancini's side produced an incredible run during the final weeks of the season - including a slender 1-0 victory over the Red Devils - to snatch the title out of United's hands with practically the final kick of the Premier League season.

Victory in Sunderland - courtesy of a goal from Wayne Rooney - seemed to be enough for Sir Alex Ferguson's side to claim a 20th league title after City fell behind to relegation-threatened Queens Park Rangers. However, stoppage-time goals from Edin Dzeko and Aguero were enough to snatch the Premier League title away from United. The strike from the Argentine has since been lauded as the league's most iconic goal given the circumstances.
