Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini says his side did not deserve their last-minute Champions League victory at Borussia Monchengladbach.

"We had a bit of luck to win the game," said the 62-year-old Chilean after Sergio Aguero's late penalty secured a 2-1 win.

"Against Juventus and West Ham we didn't deserve to lose and maybe today we didn't deserve to win but we did," added Pellegrini.
