Sponsored by. THE Manchester derby descended into chaos after a coming together involving England team-mates Kyle Walker and Harry Maguire. The pair had a blazing row after Walker took a dramatic tumble to the ground after a clash with Rasmus Hojlund. Walker caught Hojlund with a late challenge and the Danish striker quickly got to his feet to confront the Manchester City defender.

The pair went face-to-face and pushed their heads into one another, causing Walker to throw himself to the floor. Maguire was far from happy with his playacting and quickly got involved. He stormed over to berate his England team-mate but was soon stopped in his tracks by Erling Haaland and Ederson.

That sparked a huge melee between both sets of players with Maguire having to be held back. Gary Neville and Roy Keane both slammed Walker's behaviour as "embarrassing" as there was minimal contact between him and Hojlund. Neville said during commentary: "I did this in a derby against McManaman many years ago and got sent off for it,' Neville said. 'It's whether he's made that rock of his head forward.

"Walker's pushed him over and tripped him. I'm not sure, no. It's poor from Walker, the initial contact he doesn't go down on. He'll be a little bit embarrassed when he sees that back.".
