Roberto Mancini criticises 'poor' officials after Ajax draw

Roberto Mancini claims Danish referee Peter Rasmussen and his staff were "really poor" following Manchester City's 2-2 draw at home to Ajax in the Champions League.

Mancini was left fuming at the final whistle, with a disallowed goal by Sergio Aguero in the second half at the centre of his frustrations, though the Italian admits his side conceded "two stupid goals" early on.

The result leaves City bottom of Group D and needing to beat both Real Madrid and Borussia Dortmund in their remaining fixtures in order to progress, while hoping other results fall in their favour.
