Carlos Tevez FA Cup Final watch: Manchester City ace back in action
ShareCarlos Tevez signalled his return from injury by becoming embroiled in another touchline spat with manager Roberto Mancini, but is still expected to be in the Italian's squad for Saturday's FA Cup Final. [LNB]Although the Manchester City boss had warned his captain that he would have to play some part against Tottenham to prove his fitness after one month out with a hamstring tear, Mancini kept Tevez waiting for just short of 83 minutes before sending him on as a replacement for David Silva. [LNB]The striker had been warming up for much of the second half and had just taken his place back on the bench when Mancini turned around, arms outstretched in exasperation, demanding to know why he had sat down. [LNB] Impact: Carlos Tevez (right) made his return to action against Tottenham[LNB]Tevez shouted angrily in the manager's direction as he jogged past him, but was laughing by the time he was summoned back down the touchline. [LNB]The Argentine started off with a couple of simple five-yard passes as he eased his way into the game, but was soon chasing down the Tottenham defenders in typical fashion. [LNB]At one stage he closed down both Steven Pienaar and Vedran Corluka, before lunging into a tackle on Pienaar with no concerns over the injury that at one stage looked certain to keep him out of the Cup Final altogether.
