The Italian tactician saw his team battle to a 3-3 draw at their home turf against a resurgent Sunderland side but now they can be five points away from Manchester United at the top of the table if the Red Devils win their
next league match against Blackburn Rovers...
Manchester City’s latest slip up in the Premier League title race has the potential to end their title hopes if United win their next league match which is away to Blackburn Rovers. Already trailing the defending champions by two
points, United’s league rivals might find themselves five points behind if the Red Devils claim all three points against Blackburn Rovers.
United play on 2nd of April against the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s men. Earlier on in the month, mind games were being
played between both the camps but with City’s latest result, the ball is in United’s court now as they are expected to take full advantage of City’s latest setback. Mancini’s men were originally losing their tie against Sunderland by 3-1 but two quick goals
by Balotelli and Kolarov respectively gave them a route back into the encounter which ended 3-3.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mancini-c23323 said in his interview, “It’s hard [to win the title], but it depends on Monday then we have another seven games. Like us that we did some mistake in the last game, also for United maybe can arrive at a difficult moment.
Before the derby, it’s important that we recover two points. It is the correct result, the draw. I’m happy only for the last 10 minutes, for the other 80 minutes I am unhappy because we didn’t play very well.”
He added, “I don’t know why [we are playing bad]. In the first-half we are flat. It is normal when you arrive in the end [of the season] you should be tired sometimes, it’s possible. But why we did this in the last 10-15 minutes
we should do in the last 15 minutes before. We conceded three goals, this is a strange thing, it is unusual that we concede three goals at home.”
