City's slack defense pains Pellegrini

Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini said his side must not repeat the defensive errors that marred its Champions League quarterfinal, first leg at Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday despite the 2-2 draw giving it the edge.
Goals by Kevin de Bruyne and Fernandinho at Parc des Princes mean City has the upper hand ahead of Tuesday's return, but those strikes sandwiched a farcical goal gifted to Zlatan Ibrahimovic and an Adrien Rabiot effort for PSG.
The French champion also saw Ibrahimovic have a penalty saved by Joe Hart early on with the game still scoreless, so the evening could have gone far worse for Pellegrini's men.
