Instead of knocking the ball behind for a corner, Maguire and Shaw allowed Joao Cancelo's cross to find the City forward unmarked at the back post. Schmeichel blasted the duo for their failure to clear their lines in a despairing verdict on his former club. "Man City have been far, far superior and it could have been four," Schmeichel added. To allow City to get the cross in when you have seven players in the box is not good enough. United have slipped to sixth in the Premier League table and return to action against Watford after the international break.
