Video: Sergio Aguero takes on David Villa in a penalty shootout… blindfolded

They probably only blindfolded David Villa so he wouldn’t find Frank Lampard on his visit.

Two former Atletico Madrid strikers pitted their wits against one another at the Manchester City Football Academy to see who really is the master. Of penalties. Blindfolded.

New York City’s David Villa came up against the darling of the Etihad, Sergio Aguero, with five sightless shots.

The only obstacle was three dummies that the pair were allowed to place anywhere on the goal line against one another.

The game goes right to the wire as you’d expect from two masters of their trade before a bout of embarrassing exchanges about how great the other is.
