Manchester Derby: Man City 2 - Man United 3

What a great game to watch - last night's Manchester Derby between Manchester United and Manchester City. It was nail-biting till the very end. Van Persie did it for MU with a last-minute goal making it a 3-2 win for MU and which put Manchester United on top of the table with a 6-point difference over MC. Yay!

Sir Alex Ferguson felt the Manchester derby did not deserve the unsavoury incident that followed Robin van Persie's winner when Rio Ferdinand was struck by a coin thrown from the crowd.

The defender was left bloodied but unbowed as the Reds celebrated during the remarkable climax and the manager was upset to also see a fan attempt to confront the centre-back with Joe Hart's quick thinking thankfully stopping the spectator in his tracks.
