Manuel Akanji lamented Manchester City's reaction to Bruno Fernandes' controversial equaliser in the derby, suggesting the Blues did not calm down and deal with the situation as well as they could have.
City had grown into the derby and taken a second-half lead through substitute Jack Grealish, but Fernandes' leveller was quickly followed by Marcus Rashford's winner five minutes from time to ensure the Blues suffered back-to-back defeats.
The United equaliser was the turning point as an offside Rashford continued his run to the City penalty area, before allowing Bruno Fernandes to take over at the last second to score past Ederson. Although Rashford didn't touch the ball, City were adamant that he interfered with play and should therefore have been ruled offside.
