Sergio Aguero has not stopped scoring since his first day in the Premier League and it is just phenomenal.
The striker has netted his 178th goal for the club against Napoli in the UEFA Champions League.
The goal sees Aguero pass club legend Eric Brook. The latter spent 11 years with City between 1928 and 1939, whereas the former is only into his sixth season at the club.
City came from behind to win in a meeting between the free-scoring, unbeaten top sides in the Premier League and Serie A.
The hosts were on top for the first 30 minutes and deservedly led when Lorenzo Insigne played an excellent one-two with Dries Mertens and steered the ball past Ederson.
City started to see more of the ball after Napoli's blistering start and were level when Nicolas Otamendi headed in a cross from Ilkay Gundogan - a surprising selection in the starting 11.
City and Napoli have arguably been Europe's two most entertaining sides this season, with a combined 67 goals from 21 league games - dropping only two points each.
Fans were expecting a fantastic game of pressing, passing, pace and precise finishing - and and they were not disappointed.
What's next?
City look to maintain their unbeaten start to the season when they host Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday (14:15 GMT). Napoli - looking to do the same - are at Chievo 15 minutes earlier.
