Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero watched back at the worst tackles of his career and explained that he got 'mad' both times he put in a horror tackle on Chelsea defender David Luiz.
Aguero, who has been awarded three red cards in his career, posted a video where he watched both horror tackles back on the Brazilian centre-back.
The Argentinian first reacted to his red card challenge back in 2016 against Chelsea in the Premier League. The match ended in a Chelsea victory at the Etihad, but not before some unsavoury scenes triggered by Aguero hurling his studs in Luiz' knee.
'It got messy. I got mad. I got in a huff,' Aguero explained whilst watching back the tackle.
'I get a lot of kicks. And well, I already knew. 'You can leave' he (the referee) said. I can't protest. That is from the hood. Those are neighbourhood tackles. And I got up as if nothing had happened.'
This was not the first encounter between the two that led to Aguero snapping the now-Arsenal defender.
Back in 2013, City met Chelsea in the FA Cup semi-final and Aguero scored City's second goal as Roberto Mancini's side seemed to be cruising into the final.
However, as Chelsea looked to be conjuring up a late comeback, the striker threw himself into Luiz late on in a rather vicious tackle from behind.
Remarkably, the foul went unpunished by the referee but Aguero admitted that the challenge was 'not good.
'He got me mad here but the images are not good,' he explained.
The City striker went on to explain that Luiz had elbowed him earlier in the match and that he wasn't fussed about retaliating.
'Yeah, he elbowed me and he was provoking me but that's just football,' he added. 'If you provoke me, I might hit you. It's no big deal. For me, it's all good. Sometimes I can get p*****d off, can't I?'

Agüero wouldn't have dared to kick David Luiz if Diego Costa was still on the pitch. 🙃
