Balotelli apologises for red card

Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli has apologised for his red card at Arsenal and insisted no decision will be taken on his future until the end of the season.

The 21-year-old was sent off in the dying seconds of Easter Sunday’s 1-0 defeat at the Emirates Stadium for clattering into Bacary Sagna, after earlier getting away with a knee-high challenge on Gunners midfielder Alex Song.
