Mario Balotelli was involved in a
 furious shoving match with Roberto Mancini at training today after the 
Manchester City manager ordered him off the field for a late lunge at 
winger Scott Sinclair.City’s
 combustible Italian striker took a swipe at Sinclair towards the end of
 training at Carrington today and was immediately told to go in and get 
changed by Mancini, who is fast running out of patience with the 
22-year-old.
However, 
Balotelli steadfastly refused to leave the field, prompting Mancini to 
shove him towards the touchline and attempt to physically drag him from 
the field.
