Tevez back to haunt Red Devils

Carlos Tevez banged in two goals on Tuesday night as Manchester City held the edge over bitter rivals Manchester United after the first leg of the Carling Cup semi-final. The tiny Argentine, who moved between the two clubs in the summer, fired home a late first half penalty and then headed home the winner in the 65th minute at Eastlands. Ryan Giggs had earlier given United a 17th minute lead. "It was special for me - but it was for the fans of City," said 25-year-old Tevez afterwards. "I feel tired, but it's OK." Tevez moved to the blue half of Manchester after United refused to pay £25m for him after his two-year loan expired at Old Trafford at the end of last season. His tireless performance last night, which takes his goals for the season to 17, has given United manager Sir Alex Ferguson something to think about!
