Kolo Toure pleased to "recover" from Manchester United loss

Manchester City defender Kolo Toure praises his side's mental toughness following their 3-1 win at Newcastle United this afternoon.

Manchester City defender Kolo Toure has praised his side's mental toughness following their 3-1 win at Newcastle United this afternoon.

The Citizens bounced back from last Sunday's home defeat to local rivals Manchester United, as Sergio Aguero, Javi Garcia and Yaya Toure all found the net at St James' Park.

"It was really important to recover after the loss we had against United," Kolo told BBC Sport.

"Even when we were 2-0 up we were still in danger, they put pressure on us but Yaya scored the goal to kill it off.

"You need to be tough mentally here but we just kept going and we showed great character."

City have now recorded five consecutive victories over Newcastle.
