Watch Man City’s ‘other Argentinian’ score a screamer (Video)

Aguero would be proud of this strike...

While Manchester City’s international stars are away representing their countries, one of the club’s up-and-comers was busy scoring a sensational goal.

Bruno Zuculini is the *other* Argentinian at the Etihad this season after returning from a loan spell in La Liga, and he’s doing all he can to be mentioned in the same breadth as his compatriots Sergio Aguero, Nicolas Otamendi, Willy Caballero, Pablo Zabaleta and Martin Demichelis.

The 22-year-old took part in a behind-closed-doors friendly against Burnley, and rifled one into the top corner from nearly 30 yards out, despite ending up on his backside.

City lost the match 6-2 to a strong Burnley side, which included a number of first-teamers.

But Zuculini’s effort will give the Sky Blues something to cheer about.
