The Manchester Derby descended into ugly scenes at the Etihad on Sunday as all 22 players were involved in a huge brawl towards the end of the first half before Manchester United earned a dramatic 2-1 win. Manchester City had earlier gone 1-0 up through Josko Gvardiol before tensions spilled over when Kyle Walker shoved Manchester United rival Rasmus Hojlund as they went up for a header.

Hojlund then chased after Walker as the pair angrily squared up to each other before the City defender went to ground, claiming he had been headbutted. Both teams then clashed in manic scenes. Both players were booked over the confrontation, with Walker having some more words for Hojlund after the clash.

United went on to equalise in the 88th minute after Amad Diallo earned a penalty before the winger slotted home two minutes later to send the visitors' bench into ecstasy. Earlier, former United captain Gary Neville had ripped into Walker for his part in the incident with Hojlund, after replays showed he went down extremely easily.

He told Sky Sports: "It's poor from Kyle Walker. He goes down when he realises there might have been contact. I think he will be a little bit embarrassed when he sees that back.". Pundit Roy Keane also tore into Walker, claiming he was "embarrassed" for the England international following his antics.
