Manchester City claimed a 4-3 victory over Sunderland at Eastlands
as speculation mounted over the future of Mark Hughes.
The hosts were forced to take the lead three times before finally
securing only their second win in 11 games.
Roque Santa Cruz - a man Hughes fought so hard to get from former
club Blackburn - scored at the beginning and end of an extraordinary
afternoon.
Carlos Tevez and Craig Bellamy also found the net to leave Sunderland
empty handed, even though goals from John Mensah and Jordan Henderson
had pulled them level from two adrift and Kenwyne Jones had nodded
home another equaliser after half-time.
