Mario Balotelli’s place in the history of the Europa League is assured despite Manchester City’s defeat from Dinamo Kiev.
Which player was substituted for a grass allergy, red carded and needed help putting his bib on?
Step forward the summer signing from Inter Milan who must make Roberto Mancini yearn for the quiet days of life alongside Craig Bellamy.
The video below shows all the problems and difficulties that the striker had during the warm up as he struggled to come to terms with a UEFA issue bib.
Back in the ESPN studio Ray Stubbs and Robbie Savage commentate through the ‘action’ as Balotelli struggles to come to terms with two different bibs, eventually requiring help from one of the City goefurs.
Balotelli may have thought that his embarassment was a private matter but the video clip is already one of the most viewed on You Tube with 100,000 views overnight.
His embarassment wasn’t over with Mancini furious afterwards at the red card that killed off City’s hopes of salvaging the match.
“If it stays 11 versus 11, we would have probably scored two or three goals,” the City boss claimed.
“I didn’t see the foul properly but I am very disappointed because in a game like this it is very difficult if you pick up a red card, and you can pick up a red card for doing something stupid.
“The problem for Mario is that he thinks he could be a fantastic player. But when he does something stupid like that, it is difficult for me, difficult for him and difficult for the team.”
That’s him tellt then!
The double standards of the SFA.
