This article will tell you about the 10 greatest moments to have ever happened in Premier League

Since its inception in 1992, the English Premier League has given us countless unforgettable moments. From dramatic last-minute winners to stunning individual performances, the league has provided football fans with an endless supply of excitement and drama.

Narrowing down the top 10 moments in Premier League history is no easy task, but here are some of the most memorable and iconic moments that have left an indelible mark on the history of English football.

From Manchester United’s treble-winning season to Leicester City’s miraculous title win, these moments will be forever etched in the memories of football fans across the world.

Here are some of the greatest moments in Premier League history.

1. Agueroooooo

The final day of the 2011-2012 season saw Manchester City and rivals Manchester United both vying for the title. City were trailing QPR 2-1 in stoppage time, but two goals in injury time, including a last-gasp winner from Sergio Aguero, secured City’s first Premier League title in dramatic fashion.

2. Invincible Arsenal

In the 2003-2004 season, Arsenal went the entire campaign unbeaten, becoming the first team to achieve the feat since Preston North End in 1889. They won 26 matches and drew 12, finishing 11 points clear of second-placed Chelsea.

3. Leicester’s Miracle

Leicester City’s 2015-2016 title win is one of the most remarkable in sporting history. The team, who narrowly avoided relegation the previous season, were 5000-1 outsiders to win the title. However, behind the goals of Jamie Vardy and Riyad Mahrez, they defied the odds to claim the Premier League crown.

4. Steven Gerrard’s Slip

Liverpool were on the verge of ending their Premier League title drought in the 2013-2014 season, but a costly slip by captain Steven Gerrard allowed Chelsea to score and swing the momentum of the title race in Manchester City’s favor.

5. Beckham’s Free-kick against Wimbledon

David Beckham’s goal from the halfway line against Wimbledon in the 1996-1997 season is one of the most iconic moments in Premier League history. The audacious strike, which saw him lob the goalkeeper from the halfway line, announced the arrival of one of English football’s most talented players.

6. Eric Cantona’s Kung-fu Kick

In 1995, Eric Cantona, one of Manchester United’s greatest ever players, was sent off for a foul during a match against Crystal Palace. As he walked towards the tunnel, he launched himself into the crowd, kung-fu kicking a fan who had been taunting him.

Cantona received a nine-month ban for his actions, but the incident remains one of the most infamous moments in Premier League history.

7. Manchester United’s Treble

In 1999, Manchester United won the Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League, becoming the first English team to achieve the treble.

Their dramatic 2-1 victory over Bayern Munich in the Champions League final, with two injury-time goals, is one of the most memorable moments in the club’s history.

8. Vinnie Jones’ Grab

In a match against Newcastle United in 1992, Wimbledon midfielder Vinnie Jones was caught on camera grabbing the testicles of Newcastle striker Paul Gascoigne.

The incident, which took place during the early days of the Premier League, shocked fans and earned Jones a reputation as one of the league’s most notorious hard men.

9. The Battle of Old Trafford

The 2003-2004 season saw Manchester United and Arsenal compete for the title, but their match at Old Trafford descended into chaos when United’s Ruud van Nistelrooy missed a penalty in injury time.

Arsenal players, including Martin Keown and Lauren, confronted van Nistelrooy, sparking a brawl that led to red cards for Arsenal’s Patrick Vieira and United’s Roy Keane.

10. Alan Shearer’s Record

In 1995, Blackburn Rovers striker Alan Shearer broke the Premier League scoring record with his 34th goal of the season. Shearer finished the campaign with 34 league goals, helping Blackburn to finish in the top four on the PL points table.

A Manchester City legend is ready to leave this summer

Sergio Aguero is one of the greatest strikers in the Premier League history. He is an absolute legend for Manchester City.

It is confirmed that Aguero will leave Man City this summer. His contract was until 2021 which is going to expire soon.

For Man City, Aguero has scored 181 goals in 271 appearances. He is the highest goal scorer in Man City’s history.

When it comes to most goals scored in PL, Aguero comes on the 4th place. Alan Shearer is still the highest goal scorer in PL history with 260 goals in 441 games.

Two Man City legends had already left the club before. Vincent Company and David Silva left the club in 2019 and 2020 respectively.

This is the end of an era in Man City’s history and this era has a separate fanbase around the world. A defender, a playmaker and now a striker, god bless the three legends!

Have you seen Sergio Aguero since 2020? We will give the answer here

Sergio Aguero is one of the greatest Premier League striker, but where the hell in the world is he right now?

Well, Aguero was injured for a long time the last year. He was barely seen playing for Manchester City in 2020-21 season.

Aguero has achieved some great milestones in his career. The fact that he has scored more goals than Wayne Rooney in the PL makes him an underrated player.

Yes you heard it right! Aguero has scored 254 goals for Manchester City while Rooney scored 253 goals during his time at Manchester United.

Moreover, Aguero has played 185 less matches than Rooney to achieve this record. Aguero is one of the best strikers in the world and if he were not injured, he would have been the best PL striker right now in the PL.

Aguero has recovered from the injury and is available for Man City again. Man City is playing with no forwards or strikers this season.

The reason is that their mid-fielder İlkay Gündoğan has been fantastic this year. He is having his best season for Man City this year.
