Tevez: Goading was a response to taunts

Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez has defended his controversial goal celebrations against former club Manchester United on Tuesday, insisting they were "a response to them saying I was not worth the money".

Tevez, who joined City in the summer after United decided not to spend £25m to keep him, goaded former United team-mate Gary Neville during his two-goal performance in the 2-1 Carling Cup semi-final first-leg victory.
