MANCHESTER: Sergio Aguero scored a hat-trick as Manchester City outclassed Bor ussia Moenchengladbach 4-0 in their rearranged Champions League opener at the Etihad Stadium.
The game had been carried over from Tuesday due to a thunderstorm and Aguero made up for lost time with his second treble of the campaign after his hattrick against Steaua Bucharest in the play-off round.
