Match Commentary
93' FULL-TIME: Cole's double gives City a deserved victory. Zamora's late goal gave West Ham the slimmest of hopes, but the home side saw out the win. They join Manchester United in the top four. |
92' City attempt to waste a few seconds as they try to keep the ball in the corner. |
91' City win a late corner when the referee deems that the final touch on a long through-ball came from Ferdinand. The young centre-back disagrees, and vents his frustration at the official. |
