Manchester City emerged 2-0 victors in a rather awkward-feeling fixture against Hamburg in the Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. Starting with a relatively strong line up including Frank Lampard, Edin Dzeko and Stevan Jovetic, boss Manuel Pellegrini used this an opportunity to give many of his starlets some much-needed first team experience. Despite Jovetic and Dzeko both gladly putting their names on the score sheet, there was some sad news for the Blues as Thierry Ambrose came off injured just eight minutes after coming on at half time. Host commentator Ultimately Manchester City will be the happier of the two teams. A good second half display from Manuel Pellegrini's men as they return to England with a 2-0 victory against Hamburg. Next up - Middlesbrough!
