Sergio Aguero and David Villa came together at Manchester City’s Football Academy on Friday morning as the two strikers went head-to-head in a series of blindfolded challenges.<\/p>\n

The contest was billed as Manchester vs New York as the deadly duo competed against one another in a penalty shootout, the crossbar challenge and a corner-scoring game.<\/p>\n

Their predatory instincts were put to the ultimate test with neither Aguero or Villa able to see their target as they attempted each challenge blindly.<\/p>\n

There are few things more entertaining than watching prolific strikers play around with trick shots.<\/p>\n

New MLS team NYCFC put Sergio Aguero and David Villa together on a field and had some fun.<\/p>\n

Aguero (who plays for NYCFC parent team Manchester City) and Villa were blindfolded and asked to try to score from the penalty spot.<\/p>\n

And just to make it harder, the striker not taking the kick got to move around some dummy defenders.<\/p>\n

Despite Aguero’s sneaky tactics, it looks like Villa was the victor.<\/p>\n

This bodes well for NYCFC, especially if they play some games blindfolded.<\/p>\n

Take a ‘look” in the video below:<\/p>\n
