City win again!

City have advanced to the 3rd round of the Carling Cup, City beat Crystal Palace 2 - 0 at Selhurst Park.

Our first goal came five minutes after half time, Shauny Wright breaking forward before smashing the ball into the back of the net from around ten yards. Our second goal was scored by the new Man City messiah himself, Carlos Tevez scoring a header from a corner.

We played alright tonight, but could have been a lot better. Palace made it difficult for us, they tried to play us at our own game and came out of the traps at a 100 miles an hour. The way Palace were playing meant we had to work hard and there was no room for error, however there were times when we made mistakes.

I think at times we have a problem with holding the ball, we go all out and try to score to much at times. We needed someone to put their foot on the ball and hold it while we regrouped, it didn't really happen and I am sure it is hard to not want to attack with all that talent up top, but ultimately we will have to do that at times. Obviously things like that will come along once the team gel and settle down a bit, so it isn't to much of a worry at the moment.

All in all another good win for the blues against a good Palace side and another confident boost, on we march!!!!
