Man City boss Hughes confirms Garrido struck by coin
Manchester City boss Mark Hughes confirmed substitute Javier Garrido was struck by a coin thrown from the home section of Old Trafford at half-time yesterday.
It seemed the attack was actually aimed at former United hero Carlos Tevez, who was booed throughout by the home faithful.
Thankfully, Garrido was not hurt, although the Football Association are sure to be less than impressed with the two incidents.
"Apparently so," Hughes confirmed. "Something came from the crowd but he is okay."

BNP parading as "BlueSky" has already acted as an apologist for te Farsenal rioters and fouled mouthed Van Persie now he is defending a ManU hoolie. Thats what you get when you take any notice of yob mentality.
Just look at how happy bacon face was. Of course the result didn't mean anything to him, he always behaves like that.
I'm so pleased that non-stop talker and excuse-monger had some of his tripe rammed back down his gullet at Old Trafford. He'll probably get a call from his financiers' palace tomorrow, asking why the world is talking of his team in terms of defeat, players kicking opponents in the face and players punching spectators. Not quite what Mr. Sheikh had in mind when he bought the club to reflect positively on his country.
