Yaya: Africans in the Champions League

Yaya Toure, Manchester City: Following their opening Group D defeat to Juventus, and their indifferent recent Premier League form, it was imperative that the Citizens returned to winning ways against Borussia Monchengladbach. This they managed, thanks to a 2-1 away victory. However, Yaya Toure was in disappointing form in the heart of the park, failing to truly protect his defence, and was replaced at the break.
