Manchester City defeats Roma

Manchester City forges through to Champion league knockout stage with a 2-0 flogging of Roma on Wednesday. The first-time victory in Italy put them alongside Group E Bayern Munich. Munich inflicted a 3-0 pain on CSKA Moscow to pull City through to qualification. City's Nasir Samri scratched depression in Roma with a 60-minute goal. Paulo Zabaleta doubled Roma's depression with his first Champions League goal. City, who suffered pressure from Roma following Nasir's score, soon recaptured their air with Zabaleta's 86th minute shot. The Premier league champions who had earlier lost their first four games and now have six wins to their claim, still managed a thorough caning to Roma without injured Sergio Aguero, suspended Yaya Toure, and skipper Vincent Kompany. The scintillating victory sneaks City through for the last 16 draw on Monday.

He doesn't plan to chart a course like his colleague Ranieri of Leicester City did. Pep recently banned the use of mobile phones, and he also banned lateness to training. Every violation comes with a corresponding fine, ask Benjamin Mendy. Pep plans to repeat his outstanding triumph like he did last season.
