Manchester City coach Roberto Mancini blamed poor marking for his team's 0-2 defeat amid freezing conditions at Dynamo Kiev in the Europa League on Thursday
Manchester City coach Roberto Mancini blamed poor marking for his team's 0-2 defeat amid freezing conditions at Dynamo Kiev in the Europa League on Thursday.
Former AC Milan and Chelsea striker Andriy Shevchenko gave the hosts a 25th-minute lead when he diverted Andriy Yarmolenko's left-wing cross past Joe Hart to claim his 67th goal in European competition.
City introduced Carlos Tevez from the bench in the second half but to no avail, as Oleh Gusev doubled Dynamo's advantage by controlling a clearance on his chest and volleying home.
"The match was good, we played well, but we made two mistakes for the goals and you can't make mistakes in games like this," said Mancini. "We need to pay attention in the defensive phase because they were two stupid goals. Kiev are a good team. The right result might have been 1-2," added Mancini.
