Premiership: Man City 3-1 QPR | Southampton 2-3 Man Utd

Manchester City 3-1 Queens Park rangers

Yaya Toure opened the scoring for the defending champions in the first half of a game that promised much but failed to cover over the Manchester team's defensive frailties. They were stunned by QPR's equaliser from Bobby Zamora which uncovered a tactical disorganisation. Thankfully for Mancini's men, they produced a good second half and scored twice through Edin Dzeko and Carlos Tevez. English Premier League tickets can be bought securely online now.
