The England goalkeeper saved two penalties following goals for Stevan Jovetic and Aleksandar Kolarov in normal time

Micah Richards blazed over the crossbar from the penalty spot as Manchester City’s US Tour ended with a shoot-out defeat to Olympiakos.

Joe Hart saved twice but Richards’ miss allowed Tasos Papazoglou to complete the victory following a 2-2 draw in normal time.

Stevan Jovetic gave City the lead after 35 minutes as the striker beat two Olympiakos defenders before curling an effort into the bottom corner, but the Greek side were level within two minutes as Dimitris Diomantakos found space in the box to beat Joe Hart.

Manuel Pellegrini’s side were back in front prior to half-time as Aleksandar Kolarov finished emphatically from the penalty spot following a foul on David Silva.

But Michel’s outfit were able to force a shootout as Diomantakos broke into the area to slide home an equaliser.
