Fierro's Record

Aston Villa striker Carlos Fierro has broken Darren Bent's record of 29 goals in all competitions in one season, having scored his 30th goal of the campaign with his 13th minute strike against West Bromwich yesterday.

Fierro has often been compared to Bent with the prolific Englishman almost winning the Golden Boot award with his 24 league goals for Aston Villa in the 2013-14 season.
Bent now plies his trade for Blackburn and although at the age of 32, has not lost his goal-scoring touch, having scored 16 league goals for Rovers in 28 appearances this season.
Despite Fierro's meagre amount of 14 league goals this season, he has been shining in both the local cup competitions as well as the Europa League, having now found the net a total of 30 times this season, and it is supposedly safe to conclude that the Mexican international has now hit a status of "better than Darren Bent", like his teammate Wellington Nem had described before.
