City boss offers support to charity

Roberto Mancini meets members of The Marco Simoncelli Foundation and The Rainband Credit: The Rainband

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini had a busy Saturday evening.

After facing the media following the club's Premier League win against Reading, he then offered his support to The Marco Simoncelli Foundation.

The former Italian world champion moto GP rider died after an accident in 2011.

Manchester group The Rainband set up the meeting. They have raised £23,000 for the foundation through their single “Rise Again.”

The charity helps people with disabilities across the world.
