Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola paid an emotional tribute to Sergio Aguero after the forward scored twice on his final Etihad Stadium appearance.
Aguero came on in the 65th minute of City's final Premier League match of the campaign against Everton, and he promptly scored two goals in the space of 11 minutes as his side won 5-0.
The Argentina international could end up making one more appearance for City in next week's Champions League final against Chelsea in Porto, and Guardiola couldn't hide his emotions in a live Sky Sports interview when he discussed the impact of the forward on the team.
"We love him so much - he is a special person for all of us," said Guardiola, who broke down in tears during the interview.
"We can not replace him. There are many players who have helped us here, he showed his quality in those thirty minutes."
An emotional Guardiola then reflected on how his side won the title.
"We win games, game after game.
"I think when we won at Stamford Bridge we realised that suffering in the last month, the performance we played there with just 14 players we realised we are still here, we can still do this. We are still here.
"I think December until March we won all the games in all competitions. This is when we became champions."
On next week's Champions League final he added: "It's a dream come true, for this club, other people have been there, but we haven't, it's our first time and we are going to give everything and we want to win it.
"It's not enough just being there we want to win it, it's on the lads."
