Guardiola refuses to dwell on derby defeat and calls on Man City to 'focus on Spurs'

City manager believes Bruno Fernandes' goal should not have stood in the 2-1 Premier League loss at Old Trafford

Pep Guardiola believes Manchester United's equalising goal in Saturday's derby should not have stood but urged his Manchester City players to not dwell on the defeat and instead focus on the upcoming match against Tottenham.

City's Premier League title defence suffered a setback at Old Trafford with a 2-1 defeat to rivals United, Jack Grealish's second-half opener cancelled out by Bruno Fernandes' contentious equaliser before Marcus Rashford tapped in the winner for United.

The result hands Arsenal an opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the table to eight points when they face North London rivals Tottenham on Sunday, while United have moved to within one point of City.

The big talking point from the match was Fernandes' goal, which was initially ruled out for offside on Rashford, but VAR deemed the England forward was not interfering with play and the decision was overturned and the goal awarded.

"Rashford is offside. Bruno Fernandes is not offside," Guardiola said. "The question is intervening or not intervening in the action. When one player shoots and [another] player is in front of the keeper and does not touch the ball, it's disallowed all the time.

"The decision is of course the referee's and VAR. We follow the action, we don't make an offside [appeal], we follow the action and after the action, it's either Ederson intervenes or not."

Despite his disappointment, Guardiola said it was vital his team shifted their focus to Thursday's game against Tottenham.

“I said to the players – don’t waste energy thinking what happened. Focus on Spurs," he said. “I would not say we win or lose for this action [the first goal]. Of course, it was involved – an important one.

Targeted in the last derby, a 3-6 defeat. Much better in this one, though a 75th minute cross was a poor one. PA

“But wasting energy thinking about what happened in the past, you are in the next game. The best thing to do is analyse the things we have done good, what we can improve and then focus on Spurs. Now it is done. It is gone.”

Defender Manuel Akanji echoed his manager's thoughts and called on City to bounce back against Spurs.

"We played really well. The second half was better than the first half," the Switzerland international said. "We did some changes and we dominated then we deservedly scored the first goal.

"After 1-1, we've got to be clear in the head, and defend for a couple of minutes and just calm down and then attack again. We didn't do it well today. I hope we can improve on that in the next game."

Key findings of Jenkins report
  • Founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hassan al Banna, "accepted the political utility of violence"
  • Views of key Muslim Brotherhood ideologue, Sayyid Qutb, have “consistently been understood” as permitting “the use of extreme violence in the pursuit of the perfect Islamic society” and “never been institutionally disowned” by the movement.
  • Muslim Brotherhood at all levels has repeatedly defended Hamas attacks against Israel, including the use of suicide bombers and the killing of civilians.
  • Laying out the report in the House of Commons, David Cameron told MPs: "The main findings of the review support the conclusion that membership of, association with, or influence by the Muslim Brotherhood should be considered as a possible indicator of extremism."
How Filipinos in the UAE invest

A recent survey of 10,000 Filipino expatriates in the UAE found that 82 per cent have plans to invest, primarily in property. This is significantly higher than the 2014 poll showing only two out of 10 Filipinos planned to invest.

Fifty-five percent said they plan to invest in property, according to the poll conducted by the New Perspective Media Group, organiser of the Philippine Property and Investment Exhibition. Acquiring a franchised business or starting up a small business was preferred by 25 per cent and 15 per cent said they will invest in mutual funds. The rest said they are keen to invest in insurance (3 per cent) and gold (2 per cent).

Of the 5,500 respondents who preferred property as their primary investment, 54 per cent said they plan to make the purchase within the next year. Manila was the top location, preferred by 53 per cent.
