Robinho outstanding in tough City tie

Man City 3 FC Twente 2

Robinho produced a moment of magic as Manchester City got off to a winning start in Group A of the UEFA Cup.

The record buy curled a superb shot over the goalkeeper in the 56th minute after being released by Stephen Ireland.

Shaun Wright-Phillips and Benjani Mwaruwari were also on target but Twente proved to be feisty opponents with goals coming from Eljero Elia and Robbie Wielaert.
