Sven-Goran Eriksson’s first game in charge of City was at Doncaster’s new Keepmoat Stadium and from the moment he stepped off the team bus, the former England coach was the focus of attention for the press and the TV cameras. The game itself saw City come back from a goal behind to win 3-1 with goals from Corradi(48), Richards(63) and Mpenza(65)
