Manchester City enjoyed a comfortable 3-0 win over Burnley.

Sergio Aguero equalled City's goalscoring record as the Premier League leaders saw off hard-working Burnley at the Etihad Stadium.

The Argentina striker netted his 177th City goal from a controversially-awarded first-half penalty to set City on their way to a club record-equalling 11th successive win in all competitions.

Burnley proved tough opponents amid torrential rain for Pep Guardiola's free-flowing side but late goals from Nicolas Otamendi and Leroy Sane secured another three points.

City boss Pep Guardiola said of Aguero's goal: "It's a penalty, I saw it. He touched - the goalkeeper - the right foot of Bernardo."

Burnley's players complained that Silva had exaggerated the contact at the time and Clarets boss was in no doubt the decision by referee Roger East was a soft one.

Clarets manager Sean Dyche said: "To be clear, I don't think it was defining. They are a fine side, so you can't say that is going to affect the total outcome.

"There is contact. I don't know how the ref sees it because it is that instant, it's minimal and to get that high off the floor with your arms above your head is almost a skill in itself. I'm quite impressed by how far he travelled. If I kicked my kid in the garden I don't think he'd fall like that.

"The deciding factor is there is contact, but I don't think there is enough contact to fall in that fashion."
