Manchester City’s midfielder, Yaya Toure has insisted that his side need to take advantage of Manchester United’s slip up, if they are to win the league title this season.
Prior to the weekends matches, United possessed a five point lead over City and seemed to be on course to lifting the league title again.
However, with the team drawing against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019, City went on to win their game and cut down the gap between the two teams to a mere three points.
What is rather interesting about this draw, is the fact that City and United are set to face each other on the 30th of April and should City win, they would go back to the top of the league table.
Toure has urged his team to make the most of this opportunity that has been presented to them and when talking about United’s draw is quoted to have said: "We found out about it on the bus on the way to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wolves-c40952. It was quite unbelievable and we now have to
try and take advantage.”
"We did the first part by beating Wolves but we have to settle down and continue to work hard because United still have three points more than us."
However, the midfielder did admit that United were rather good when playing away from home and that this was going to make their upcoming game a little more challenging then he would have hoped for it to be.
Toure then went on to add: "We have to play them at home and, if you look at the record of United, they are very strong away and it will be a very difficult test for us"
"I think this year the club need to win the cup [league title] and it will be difficult.”
"But we need to win this derby because it will be one of the most important games the club have had."
It is now up to City to go on and prove that they are no longer pushovers and the best way for them to do so, is to beat their local rivals and win the Premier League trophy.
