With Manchester United manager Jose
Mourinho and Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola set for the 17th
instalment of their bitter rivalry in Saturday’s derby at Old Trafford,
AFP Sport looks back at five classic encounters between the old rivals:
Inter Milan 3 Barcelona 1, Champions League semi-final first leg, April 2010
Responding in bullish fashion after
Inter were brushed aside by Guardiola’s Barcelona in the Champions
League group stages, Mourinho insisted he would relish a semi-final
rematch.
Mourinho got his wish in an acrimonious clash that lit the fuse on the pair’s rivalry.
Pedro gave Barca the lead, but Inter roared back with goals from Wesley Sneijder, Maicon and Diego Milito.
