Jose Mourinho wasn’t a happy camper after Manchester City’s derby victory.
The Portuguese made his way to the Manchester City dressing room in the aftermath of the game to make his discontent known with City players for their celebrations, according to reports from the British media on Sunday.
Manchester City defeated Manchester United 2-1 in Sunday’s derby in Old Trafford and that put 11 points and clear daylight between themselves and second placed United in the title race.
The Guardian reported that Mourinho’s arrival to the City changing room prompted a fracas involving more than 20 players and members of staff from both sides.

Punches and bottles were said to have been thrown after the Manchester United manager got involved in a verbal altercation with Manchester City goalkeeper Ederson.
The manager was then squirted with milk and water from plastic bottles.
The pair exchanged insults in Portuguese, and this prompted several players and staff members to become involved, with Old Trafford security eventually required to break up the brawl.
The confrontation then became more heated, with United front man Romelu Lukaku “prominently” involved as the brawl became more serious, said that Guardian report.
Mikel Arteta – former Arsenal player and one of Pep Guardiola’s assistants for Manchester City was left with blood streaming down his face, according to the report.
