Taye Taiwo haunted by Manchester City's first Premier League title win

Taye Taiwo says he continues to be haunted by memories of giving away the goal that earned Manchester City their first English Premier League title in 2012, and explains that he endured good-natured ribbing from his coach and players in Italy about taking money from City's wealthy owners to let Sergio Aguero score.

As a defender with Queens Park Rangers, on loan from AC Milan, the Nigerian was involved in one of the Premier League's most iconic title finishes, when Manchester City scored twice in stoppage time to overcome a 1-2 defect and claim their maiden Premier League title in dramatic circumstances.
