Silva hurt in City victory

Manchester City are now 12 points behind Manchester United at the top of the English Premier League standings.

City beat United 2-1 in a Manchester derby at Old Trafford on Monday night.

City players scored all three goals.

Vincent Kompany netted an own-goal, while James Milner and Sergio Aguero found the right net for the defending champions.

The derby produced seven yellow cards and an injury to David Silva.

The Spaniard hurt his hamstring at Old Trafford and is doubtful for the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea this weekend.

City will meet Chelsea at Wembley on Sunday afternoon.

Millwall and Wigan Athletic will contest the first FA Cup semi-final on Saturday.

They will also clash at Wembley in London.
