Like father, like son.
Great football teams are often made up of wonderful partnerships, and while Sergio Aguero links up pretty well with most of his colleagues on the pitch, he also does so with his son in his spare time.

That much was apparent when Manchester City’s all-time top goalscorer posted a video of himself and Benjamin playing a little football tennis against a couple of others.
He’s got a decent touch on him, the nine-year-old.

After plenty of heading and some volleying too, it looked as though team Aguero took the win.
Although to be fair, the kid’s grandfather is Diego Maradona – he was going to have SOME talent.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska's spring football game, which dates to the 1920s and has been played annually since 1950, will be replaced with skills competitions and 7-on-7 games at Memorial Stadium on April 26, the school announced Thursday.
Coach Matt Rhule had said five weeks ago he highly doubted a spring game would be played because of his concerns about other teams scouting players in the scrimmage and possibly poaching them through the transfer portal.
The skills competitions will be similar to the NFL's Pro Bowl games. In addition to those and the 7-on-7 games, former players will participate in various competitions and there will be a women's flag football exhibition.
Tickets are $10 for adults. For an additional $50, fans can take a one-hour tour of the Osborne Legacy Complex football building.
As part of the Husker Games, as the event is called, Nebraska also will host a women's soccer exhibition against Wyoming and spring volleyball match against Kansas.
While spring football games remain popular and a big draw at some programs, schools in recent years have started to move away from traditional scrimmages because of smaller rosters and the risk of player injuries. Nebraska, Texas, Ohio State and Southern California are among programs ending the tradition this year.
