Superb second-half goals from Yaya Toure and Carlos Tevez helped
Manchester City to a hard-fought win over Chelsea and reduced the gap to
Manchester United at the top of the Premier League to 12 points.
Chelsea interim manager Rafael Benitez:
"When you lose, you have to be disappointed and this
game was important for us because we could have been closer to Man City,
but we cannot give up.
"We have to fight for the top four because Arsenal, Tottenham and Everton are close behind.
[On the penalty awarded for a foul by Joe Hart on Demba
Ba] "I haven't seen the replay, but at least yellow card. You can argue
he is going in this direction but it is still a clear chance. I think
it was a turning point. We didn't do well in the first half but we went
to half-time at 0-0.
"We were talking about keeping the ball, doing better
and showing more character. Then we had the penalty. It was a crucial
moment in the game."
