# Manchester City: Fans flock to Martin Demichelis 2014 goal footage against Fulham

**Reacting to club [footage](https://twitter.com/ooooouuii/status/1239518389053374466?s=21) of Martin Demichelis’ tap-in against Fulham back in 2014, many Manchester City supporters have lauded the Argentine – with one fan jokingly suggesting he was ‘[robbed of the Puskas award](https://twitter.com/ooooouuii/status/1239518389053374466?s=21)‘.**

Demichelis, who made 106 appearances for the Sky Blues over a three-year stay at Eastlands ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/martin-demichelis/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/2963)), was signed by Manuel Pellegrini as much needed defensive back-up due to the consistently rotating backline of Vincent Kompany, Joleon Lescott and Matija Nastasic at the time.

During the back-end of the 2013/2014 season, Demichelis was favoured by Pellegrini alongside Kompany as City claimed their second Premier League title – but supporters have since lauded the Argentine for a reminder of his tap-in goal against Fulham at the Etihad. Yaya Toure’s hat-trick, a Fernandinho strike and Demichelis’ goal sealed a [resounding 5-0 win](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/26590071), with the ex-Bayern Munich defender tapping home the easiest strike he’s ever likely scored.

As a result of the footage, many supporters have been in full discussion over their ex-defender – find all of their best comments down below.
