The Story in 60 Seconds

Former Manchester United captain Roy Keane criticized Manchester City midfielder Phil Foden for his post-match behavior following City's 1-0 derby victory at Old Trafford. Foden was sent off in the 23rd minute of the match for an incident involving Bruno Fernandes. After the game, Foden was seen miming the 1-0 scoreline to provoking Manchester United supporters as he boarded the team bus.

Keane argued on the Stick to Football podcast that Foden should have kept a low profile after leaving his teammates to play with ten men for over an hour. While Jill Scott defended Foden's reaction to fan insults, Keane insisted he should have simply boarded the bus. Despite the red card, Manchester City secured the 1-0 win through a goal from Erling Haaland.
