Bulgarians score in reserves win

Valeri Bozhinov scored twice and Martin Petrov got the other as City Reserves beat their Everton equivalents 3-1 on Tuesday evening. Reports here from the City and Everton websites:

But we only had to wait four more minutes for a deserved equaliser. Valeri Bojinov collected the ball around 30 yards out, and acting quickly he looped it over Nash to level the scores in fine style.

The 22-year-old was on target again in a less spectacular but equally effective style three minutes later, providing an assured finish to some slick interplay between the entire City front four.

Martin Petrov provided the coup-de-grace in magnificent style on 76 minutes. The flying winger sprinted down the left flank and collected a pass, chipped the ball up to himself fired a rocket past the helpless Nash. It was an almost unbelievable finish from a player whose season has been nearly ruined by injury, and showed he is fighting fit for the rest of the season.

Just what we've all been waiting to hear. 4 - 4 - 2, Rigsby on the left, SWP on the right, Robinho and the Boj in the middle. We'll tear the scum to shreds. Think he'll play that? Nah....
