Manchester City 4-3 Sunderland: Seven goals thriller



uk.eurosport.yahoo.com
Manchester City won a remarkable Premier League clash 4-3 against Sunderland at Eastlands in what turned out to be Mark Hughes' final game in charge.

City enjoyed a dream start in the heavy snow, going 2-0 up inside 12 minutes thanks to Roque Santa Cruz's first Premier League goal for the club and a Carlos Tevez penalty - both disputed by Sunderland.

The Black Cats - who finished with 10 men when Michael Turner was shown a late red card - hit back with two goals in the following 12 minutes, John Mensah heading home and Jordan Henderson smashing in from 12 yards.




Craig Bellamy restored City's lead with a clinical strike to cap an exciting first half; Sunderland then equalised a second time through substitute Kenwyne Jones, only for Santa Cruz to bag a second with 21 minutes remaining.
