Manchester City are investigating the allegations and have vowed to ban for life anyone found guilty.

Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer called for stern action and education in the wake of “unacceptable” alleged racist abuse aimed at his players during the win at Manchester City.

The Etihad Stadium bore witness to a match as thrilling as it was surprising as United overcame the reigning Premier League champions 2-1 thanks to goals from Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial.

But the Manchester derby also saw disturbing scenes, with City confirming they were “aware of a video circulating on social media which appears to show a supporter making racial gestures”.

Anti-discrimination group Kick It Out said it had been “inundated with reports of alleged racist abuse from a number of individuals” during the game.

The Professional Footballers’ Association also condemned the alleged abuse and praised City’s swift response.
