Roberto Mancini has said the Manchester City defender Pablo Zabaleta will not appear in their next game against Newcastle United on Sunday. The player faced a hamstring injury in City’s 1-1- draw against Juventus on Thursday night in the Europa League.
Manchester City boss doesn’t think that the injury is so serious even though he would not play in their next game. Mancini said Pablo has a hamstring injury but I don’t expect it is so serious but still he will not perform intheir Sunday’s upcoming match against Newcastle United.
Mancini said, he was worried about his team’s performance against Juventus and he really doesn’t understand why City started their game so slowly. I really hoped that we could manage to defend the score we scored but when Juventus equalized the game was completely changed and it is for sure to happen if a team plays every three days, he added.
