Nani warns Manchester City of backlash

Nani has warned Manchester City that they will face an "angry" Manchester United when the two sides meet at the Etihad Stadium.

The Red Devils gave away a two-goal cushion late on during their 4-4 draw against Everton on Sunday to open up the Premier League title race.

City's 2-0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers later that afternoon means that the two clash in a title showdown next Monday, with Nani anticipating a strong response from his side.

"There is anger from the players because we wanted to win [against Everton]," Nani told MUTV.

"We have to keep believing in our qualities because we still have a great opportunity to win the title. It's a huge game.

"It will be a difficult game, but if you want to win the league you cannot think about the atmosphere or the opponents. Of course [we can win]."

City boss Roberto Mancini earlier claimed that United are still favourites for the title.
