No Johnson again. Isn't he like 4 games behind the rest of the team now? Slightly worrying.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: The floodlights are on already at the Molveno Stadium. The ground, which has acted as City's training base, is also Bayern Munich Under-23's annual summer camp base.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: Danny Pugh, formerly of Manchester United remember, has squared up with an opponent in what is proving to be a feisty and fiery start here in Italy.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: The Kalloni player involved in the incident has seen red, too.
This is extraordinary.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: The Kalloni player appeared to punch Danny Pugh, but then dropped to the ground holding his stomach. All hell broke lose between the teams then, with O'Brien having to be held back by team-mates.

Sounds a great 'friendly'.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: Both sides are being allowed to make substitutes to make up the numbers now. So, it's as you were with 11 men on each side.
Ryan Haynes is on for City.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: It's ANOTHER dismissal for the Greek side.
We've barely seen half an hour but Manuel Delgado is sent off for catching Webster in the head with his arm.
This time Kalloni aren't bringing on a substitute - so the Greeks have a man disadvantage for the rest of proceedings.

I hope we carry this bite into the season, way too soft last season. They sound like a right bunch of dirty sods.

Billy Daniels sent off.

Maybe this is one of those team building where they get into a huge scrap for some bonding.

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: Oh. My. God. IT'S ANOTHER RED CARD.
Billy Daniels is dismissed for an innocuous foul which Andy Turner has labelled an "absolute farce".
Both sides down to ten men. Crikey. Get me a glass of water.

4 sendings off in the first half of a friendly! Surely this has to be some sort of a record?!

CITY 0-0 AEL KALLONI: Things seem to be settling down as we approach half-time.
It's almost as if both teams are scared to make contact with each other in case they lose any more players.
This match defies belief.
