Tevez must play before final, insists Mancini

ROBERTO MANCINI and Carlos Tevez could be on an FA Cup collision course.

The Manchester City striker is desperate to feature in the May 14 showdown with Stoke at Wembley as the Blues attempt to end their 35-year wait for a trophy.

Still missing with the hamstring injury he suffered at Liverpool on April 11, Tevez has only just started training with his team-mates and has been declared extremely doubtful to be in Mancini’s squad for tomorrow’s trip to Everton.
