May: The Finish Line

City 5-1 Blackburn Rovers
PRM
This was another brilliant performance from the lads and the 5-1 scoreline demonstrates this. Our strike partnership of Leandro Damiao and Klaas-Jaan-Huntelaar was deadly and contributed to all our goals (through goals and assits).

City 2-1 Fulham
PRM
Well - this was definitely the right result in an un-inspiring game. A from Leandro Damiao and a John-Arne-Risse own gave us 3 points in our last Home game of the .

Newcastle United 3-2 City
PRM
This was really harsh on the and the as we performed really well. Newcastle, However were more clinical and that really hurt us on the day. Unfortunately for us though - Key duo Douglas Costa and Gael Clichy suffered long term injuries that meant they would miss the Champions final in Germany.

City Fans turned out in their thousands on the night of the Champions Final 2012 in Munich. The anticipation was phenomenal and the Worlds Press descended on the Allianz Arena ahead of Club's most important in their 125 year history.
Toon on the Final
The Match
As you can see - I have set the up slightly differently to usual. This was to counter Barcelona's dominance in the Midfield.
The centurions started the stronger and came closest in the the early stages with Leandro Damiao hitting the post on 9 miutes from the edge of the area. Despite City's early dominance - 2 bits of pure class from David Villa saw the Catalans 2-0 up in 2 fist half minutes.
After a heated talk - Craborum Toon's side looked inspired after the break and gave themselves a lifeline early on through a Vincent Kompany header. Then the Citizens were Level - Samir Nasri cutting the ball back for Yaya Toure who finished with aplomb from the edge of the box. The City were Jubilant. City pressed on for the but again showed their class as Fabregas and another from David Villa saw them 4-2 up David Villa.
That was how the stayed - Agony - but we can be very proud of our performance agianst the best side in the world.
