Manchester City scored their 500th Premier League goal under Pep Guardiola in Tuesday s clash with Leeds United.
Phil Foden put City ahead against Leeds at the Etihad Stadium as they reached the landmark figure in record time under a manager.
Foden made the eighth-minute breakthrough when he finished off from the edge of the penalty area after Rodri was beaten in a dash to the ball by Leeds goalkeeper Illan Meslier.
City required just 207 games to score the 500 goals, bettering the 234 games it took Liverpool to net that amount under Jurgen Klopp.
Next on that list is legendary Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson (265 games), followed by Arsenal great Arsene Wenger (271).
Sergio Aguero, who departed City at the end of last season, has scored the most goals for City during Guardiola s five and a half year tenure with 82 to his name.
Raheem Sterling has been responsible for 76 of the goals, Gabriel Jesus 52, Kevin De Bruyne 37 and Ilkay Gundogan 31 among those to have netted 30 or more.
City s highest-scoring season under Guardiola was in 2017-18 when finding the net 106 times.
500 Phil Foden has scored Man City s 500th goal under Pep Guardiola, in just his 207th game in charge, the fastest any manager has seen their sides reach 500 goals in the competition (previously Jürgen Klopp, 234). Landmark.
