Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho was reportedly involved in an altercation with multiple Manchester City players following the Sky Blues' 2-1 win at Old Trafford on Sunday. Sky Sports reported the news.

The Daily Telegraph's James Ducker also reported milk and water were thrown over the United boss, who is said to have engaged in a war of words with City's Brazilian goalkeeper Ederson.

According to Ducker, the two were "yelling at each other in Portuguese" after Mourinho aired grievances with the way the visitors celebrated their win in their dressing room.



Daniel Taylor of the Guardian reported City assistant coach Mikel Arteta was left bloodied in the fight. United striker Romelu Lukaku was reported to be "prominently involved," though no video of the altercation has been made available at this time.

And in Taylor's report in the Guardian, he wrote "Mourinho is said to have accused Ederson of play-acting to waste time and then reverted to English, screaming 'you f--king show respect. Who are you?'"

The Daily Mail's Simon Jones and Jack Gaughan provided further commentary on the incident, claiming "witnesses said some players tried to swing punches while police looked on in disbelief" after Mourinho had "walked into the away dressing room."

Mourinho told reporters City were "protected by luck" in Sunday's 2-1 loss that saw Nicolas Otamendi score the winning goal in the 54th minute.

"I think they are a very good team, they are lucky, they have decisions in their favour," he said. "My first reaction is that I feel sorry for Michael Oliver. The referee is a human being and he tried his best. He was very committed to have a good match, which I think he had, but made one mistake, which was a crucial mistake."

The loss effectively ended United's hopes of winning the Premier League title. City sit 11 points ahead of the second-place Red Devils following the first 16 matches of the season.
