ARSENAL star Shkodran Mustafi was blasted for his “schoolboy” defending after they weakly allowed Manchester City to take the lead in the Carabao Cup.
Just 18 minutes were on the clock when the Argentine capitalised on some embarrassing stuff from the Gunners backline for his 30th goal of the season.
And the hotshot will probably not score an easier one all season.
Despite Pep Guardiola’s men being famed for their fancy play, broke the deadlock in true route one style.
City goalkeeper Claudio Bravo pumped the ball upfield from inside his own box and Aguero gently nudged Mustafi as it headed towards him.
The defender just stood rooted to the spot appealing for a foul as the South American raced through clear on goal, having been given the majority of the half by the generous Arsenal backline.
And he produced a gorgeous dink over the keeper to break the deadlock at Wembley.
Mustafi must have wanted the hallowed turf to open up and swallow him.
