Pellegrini rues first half performance

Monday, March 10 2014 by SNTV
  • Intro:

    Reaction from the managers after Wigan Athletic stunned Manchester City - again - to keep their FA Cup defence going with a 2-1 win in the quarter-finals at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday (9th March).

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Manuel Pellegrini, Manchester City manager: (giving his thoughts on his side's performance)

    "I think we had two games in the same one. One from the first minute until minute 46 when they scored the second goal. And there I think we react in that moment, it was a little bit late because we couldn't draw and we couldn't win the game, so I think we are very unlucky also in the last 35 minutes, but we give 55 minutes to Wigan without playing the pace we need to play."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Manuel Pellegrini, Manchester City manager: (asked whether the players were to blame for the defeat)

    "I think we all work together. We all have the responsibilities to win. It was a special week after winning the Capital One (League Cup) and international games. But I think that all of us have the same responsibility."
