Chinese Sun Starts for Man City

Chinese international Sun Jihai started for Manchester City on Wednesday to beat rumors that he would be a sacrifice in the team¡¯s reshuffle under the guidance of new boss Swede Sven Eriksson.
Sun was preferred in the defense line in the game against Shrewsbury Man City won 2-0, website Sohu reported.

Sun spurted up-front in the 20th minute for assistance, but his effort was squandered later by teammate Geovanni whose shot flew over the bar.

Sun was substituted after the break.

Both goals came in the second half thanks to contributions from Bernardo Corradi and Paul Dickov
