MANCHESTER CITY Manchester City boss Manuel Pellegrini warns CSKA Moscow fans against repeating their racial abuse of midfielder Yaya Toure when the sides meet in the Champions League on Tuesday. Uefa ordered the partial closure of CSKAs stadium during the clubs next Champions League tie after the chanting at the Arena Khimki during Citys 2-1 win on 23 October - and Pellegrini says Russian fans made an important mistake and have a responsibility to behave properly with the country due to host the World Cup in 2018. The fans of CSKA made an important mistake, he says. I dont know why CSKA denied it at the beginning, I dont know what their reaction is now. Uefa acted and gave them punishment it deserved. Hopefully we can leave this is in the past, hopefully it will be an example for Russian fans because they have a World Cup in their country.
