Ander Herrera 'denies spitting on Manchester City crest'

A Manchester United spokesman is quoted as saying that Ander Herrera is "mortified" by suggestions that he spat on a Manchester City badge at the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester United midfielder Ander Herrera is said to be "mortified" at suggestions that he deliberately spat on a Manchester City crest during Saturday's clash.

Footage circulated on social media after the Red Devils' dramatic 3-2 win at the Etihad Stadium of the Spaniard seemingly taking aim at the pitchside badge when making his way down the tunnel for half time.

Herrera has yet to comment on the video firsthand, but a United spokesman has told The Telegraph that there was zero intent in the 28-year-old's actions.

"Ander has seen the footage of the incident and is mortified at any suggestion that his actions were deliberate," the spokesman is quoted as saying. "It was entirely accidental and there was no intent whatsoever."


United were two goals down at the time but battled back to earn all three points, leaving them 13 points adrift of their opponents with 18 left to play for.
