The fierce rivalry between the two teams in Manchester is well known, but the last derbywon by City with 3-0, had an unusual episode.
Manchester City fired a member of his staff for a rare reason. Specifically, the employee was surprised by serving drinks at the “Etihad” stadium during the big match on Sunday, wearing a T -shirt by Manchester United.
He wore a black jacket, an badge with Manchester City, and underneath he had the rival's travel shirt.

The photograph with the employee, serving the beer supporters during the Sunday match, circulated on the social networks until he reached the management of “citizens”, according to Sportal.gr.
Also, several fans have sent email to the club to signal the employee's gesture.
The reaction of the club's officials was immediate. Some supporters received an email response. “Thank you for informing us this. We can confirm that the person in question has now been removed from office,” the English said.
After the first 4 stages of the Premier League, Manchester City ranks 8th, with 6 points. Rival United is doing a little worse. It's on 14, with 4 points.
I was impressed by the intensity of the applause. There are no words that include family pain. I know how much the fans of City appreciated him. It was an incredible moment, which I will always keep in memory.
I changed a lot in this transfer window, adding nine players to the team's nucleus. It is impossible to think about all these things and conceive everything I have achieved. Spirit, body language, desire to fight together. It is a privilege to bring joy and moments of happiness, because I know how much this derby matters.
