Dzeko spares City blushes

Manchester City striker Edin Dzeko struck a late winner as the Barclays Premier League champions came from behind to win 2-1 at Fulham.

Dzeko slotted home the decisive goal three minutes from time after Sergio Aguero had cancelled out Mladen Petric's early penalty. Petric had sent England goalkeeper Joe Hart the wrong way from the spot after Pablo Zabaleta's foul on John Arne Riise.

Aguero, who damaged his knee against Southampton on the opening weekend of the season, tapped home the follow-up after Mark Schwarzer had parried Carlos Tevez's deflected shot two minutes before the interval.
