Sergio Aguero revealed the secret behind beating Barcelona after Manchester City's 3-1 win over the Catalan giants in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

City produced a convincing performance to beat Barcelona at the Etihad on Tuesday night and Aguero has revealed what needs to be done when facing Luis Enrique's side - pretend they're another team.

"They're a difficult team, obviously. If you give them the time and the space to think, they will beat you," Aguero said after the game.

"You always have to respect Barca and any team would respect that, but we had to pretend that it wasn't Barca and try to play how we know, and win, which was the most important thing.

"I've experienced many different important nights, and this was another one that not only me but the whole team enjoyed.

"We also could feel the support from the fans and that was important for our confidence. It was a nice game for the memories".
