Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini admits they need to find a way to handle Rory Delap's scud throw-ins at Stoke City tonight.

Mancini feels his team did enough to progress to the last of the FA Cup at the weekend, but the failure to kill Stoke off in the first half proved costly.

"I think you will see a different game tomorrow night," he told City's website. "On Saturday we played well in the first half, but we couldn't find a second goal after taking the lead.

"I think we handled Stoke's corners comfortably, but the Rory Delap throw-ins are very dangerous and difficult to defend against and with their pitch being narrower and shorter, we must have more focus and concentration each time they attack in this way."
