Aguero pleased with Man City’s UCL progress

Sergio Aguero was unfazed by his penalty miss in the Champions League meeting with Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday and was simply happy Manchester City progressed to the semi-finals.
After a 2-2 draw at the Parc des Princes last Wednesday, City had a chance to take command of the tie in the first half at the Etihad Stadium when PSG goalkeeper Kevin Trapp felled the Argentina star in the area.
Aguero missed his 30th-minute spot-kick, sending it wide of the right-hand post, but Kevin De Bruyne ensured progression with a curling effort in the 76th minute, sealing a 1-0 triumph and 3-2 aggregate victory.
The 27-year-old shrugged off his failure to hit the net from 12 yards and was pleased the team had made it through to the final four.
“Yeah well, obviously it’s never good to miss a penalty but I’m happy because we played well as a team and we got through to the next stage. We are very happy,” said Aguero.
“PSG are a great team, they’ve got great players in their squad. We did well there in Paris and I knew that it would be tough for them here, but we had the support of our fans and luckily we won.
“It’s important for Manuel Pellegrini of course because we all know he won’t be here next season so I reckon he must be very happy
