United striker's brother assaulted outside Manchester derby

Manchester United starlet Mame Biram Diouf's brother says he was attacked by Manchester City supporters after violence flared following their derby defeat on Saturday.

Abdul Diouf, 28, was kicked and punched to the ground after he left Eastlands. He was wearing the No.32 shirt his brother wore in February's Carling Cup final win against Spurs.

Said Diouf's agent Jim Solbakken: "He was attacked from behind by some Manchester City supporters as he was walking away from the ground.

“Fortunately there was no need for medical treatment and he got away without any injuries.”
