Pablo Zabaleta’s only Premier League goal in the 2011/12 season is often overshadowed by what happened in the following hour.
Technically, his goal was just as important as Sergio Aguero ’s 94th-minute title-winning power-strike in Manchester City's unforgettable 3-2 win over QPR on the final day. But his fellow countryman rightly gets the plaudits for what is surely the Premier League’s most memorable moment.
And while Zabaleta sang the praises of Aguero too, when recently speaking to the club’s website , he jokingly made sure to remind supporters of his opening goal on that special day as well. “Sergio stole my moment!” he joked. “That was my only goal of the season.”
