Manchesty City gave a brilliant performance as they defeated rival, Manchester United 3-1, with goals from David Silva, Sergio Aguero and Ilkay Gundogan.


With the win in the bag, Raheem Sterling spent some of the closing period showboating in possession with a couple of stepovers.

After the final whistle, Manchester City coach, Pep Guardiola stormed onto the field where he was involved in a heated exchange with Sterling. It appeared the City boss wasn't pleased with Sterling's display towards the end of the game.

Sterling's manager was not the only one disappointed with the action which was joined by cries of 'Ole' from the home support as Juan Mata remonstrated with his rival too.
