Tevez treble for the fans
March 30, 2010
Carlos Tevez conjured up a magical hat-trick to send City sweeping back into fifth place last night.
The Blues striker took his tally to 25 for the season by scoring all three in a 3-0 victory over stubborn Wigan, who lost defender Gary Caldwell to a red card.
Tevez took out his shinpad bearing a tribute to his daughter after his opening two goals before jumping into the crowd to celebrate his hat-trick - a celebratuion that earned him a booking.
The Argentinean ace said: “All the goals I have scored are for the fans and the team.
"It feels great to be here and get all this support and when I go on the pitch.”
Goalkeeper Shay Given, who was largely untroubled despite the sticky encounter led the tributes to Tevez.
"It was a bit of a scrappy first half and the manager let us know at half-time he wasn't happy - but we upped it a gear," he said.
"Carlos was fantastic, he scored three great goals."
The Ireland international goalkeeper hopes his team have what it takes to finish fourth in the table and claim a place in next season's Champions League.
Given, whose team are two points adrift of Tottenham with seven games remaining, added: "We've got a lot of big games coming up and hopefully we can get across the line.
"It will be a tense finish and hopefully we can back tonight's result up with three more points on Saturday at Burnley."
I think he's found his spiritual home, fcuking class carlos we love you!!
