Manchester United confirm Jose Mourinho coin incident

Manchester United confirm that manager Jose Mourinho was struck by a coin thrown by a supporter during the closing stages of the derby showdown with Manchester City.

Manchester United have confirmed that Jose Mourinho was struck by a coin during the closing stages of the derby showdown with Manchester City.

United held a 3-2 advantage in the fixture at the Etihad Stadium when a pound coin was thrown in the direction of the Portuguese, who was standing in the technical area.

However, United have revealed that Mourinho does not intend to take the matter any further after giving the coin to a ball boy.

A spokesperson told Sky Sports News: "There was a coin thrown and Jose Mourinho gave the coin to a nearby ball boy.

"No-one was hurt so he doesn't want to make an issue out of it."

United held on to register victory over City having gone into half time with a two-goal deficit.
