“They were lucky” Yaya Toure sour after Man City’s latest failure in Europe

Speaking after Manchester City’s 2-1 home defeat to Juventus in their opening Champions League group stage game, a dejected Yaya Toure was once again having to deflect some tough questions on City’s inadequacies in Europe.

“I Think they’ve been luck today” grumbled Toure referring to Juventus’ comeback. Adding “We didn’t play so bad.”

Unfortunately for Toure “not playing so bad” rarely gets you the three points. Juventus were simply the better finishers on the night, producing two quality goals from Mario Mandzukic and Alvaro Morata.

Toure, however did admit that City need to learn in Europe. The problem is, you would expect them to have learnt a little more by now.
