Sergio Aguero struck late off the bench to inspire Manchester City to a thrilling comeback win against Swansea.

The hosts stunned the Premier League champions early on, taking the lead through Matt Grimes' penalty. And it was two less than 10 minutes later, when Bersant Celina scored against his former club.

Celina capped off a fine move by the hosts to leave Pep Guardiola shell-shocked. But City found a way back into it: first through Bernardo Silva's fine strike.

Then controversy as Raheem Sterling was tripped, giving City a penalty, which Aguero missed, but the ball rebounded off Kristoffer Nordfeldt and into the net.

Aguero finally did grab his goal, heading low at the near post to complete the comeback.
