Red Devils revel in their superiority
Manchester was painted red after United gave City the blues by recording a convincing 4-2 win at Old Trafford on Sunday to give themselves an excellent chance of finishing inside the Premier League top four.
Given the importance of the result, understandably there were a few United players who wanted to share their celebrations, while, not for the first time, Mario Balotelli was made to look a little silly...

Kobe Bryant hits out at the critics
LA Lakers star Kobe Bryant was in full rant mode this week, taking umbrage at the criticism of Russell Westbrook’s 43 shots for OKC against Indiana. Kobe, no stranger himself to a shot or 40, really went for it...
