City's garden of Edin
By Dave Walker
Manchester City’s thoroughly deserved 2-1
win at The Hawthorns was undoubtedly the late Edin Dzeko show as 10-man
City persevered in adversity.
But it was a victory built on resilience,
self belief and strength of purpose stemming from that memorable, last minute,
title-clinching win over QPR last May.
Has there ever been a team more aware of
the rewards to be had by keeping going until the final whistle, than Roberto
Mancini’s men – I think not.
This was as dramatic a win as you’ll see
all season as City kept their composure, stayed patient and ultimately
triumphed after being a man down for 75 minutes of play.
