Manchester City players were largely pleased with their derby performance at Old Trafford, but accepted that they were at fault for allowing Manchester United to score two quick goals to win the game.
United followed up Bruno Fernandes' hugely controversial equaliser with Marcus Rashford's winner four minutes later to complete the turnaround that earned them three points that hauls them up to one point behind City.
The Blues have now lost back-to-back fixtures after their cup defeat at Southampton, and defender Nathan Ake says the squad were pleased with the response from that off-night at St Mary's.
