The Brazilian registered his first top-flight hat-trick and admitted that it is a memorable moment from his career so far.
“It’s my first hat trick in the Premier League, four goals, I am so happy. I try to help my team. I want to say thank you to Kevin [De Bruyne]. He is the taker and he said, Gabby go and score a hat trick. I want to thank him for giving me the opportunity. I had scored two and he said score a hat trick. He is not selfish.
“I am here to score goals. I know I can help my team. Aguero is a legend and one of the best players in City history - I try to help as well.
“Yeah, it’s very special. When I score two, I try to get the ball home but sometimes the keeper saves or I hit the post, and I have not been lucky; now today was my day. So I am happy.”
