Ferguson's Worst Day 弗格森最惨的一天

Sir Alex Ferguson described Manchester United's 6-1 thrashing 痛击 by rivals Manchester City as his "worst ever day" at the club and vowed 发誓: "There will be a response."

Mario Balotelli and Edin Dzeko each scored a brace 两个球 as City tore apart 撕裂，击溃 United, who had Jonny Evans sent off 被罚下场。

Sergio Aguero and David Silva also scored for City in United's biggest Old Trafford defeat since 1955.

Ferguson said: "It's the worst result in my history. The impact will come from the embarrassment of the defeat."

He means that the shame the players feel because of the size of the defeat, especially in a derby match 德比，同城两队之间的比赛，will inspire them to improve their performances for the rest of the season.

Ferguson believes the loss was self-inflicted 自找的，and criticised his team's gung-ho approach 狂热亢奋的态度。The result ended their run 连续性记录 of 19 consecutive home wins 主场取胜 in the Premier League.

The United boss said the way his team played was suicidal 自杀性的。

"Jonny Evans's sending off was a killer for us. With 10 men we kept attacking - it was crazy football and ended up being an embarrassment. We should have just said: 'We've had our day'."

He means that his team shouldn't have continued to attack in the hope of victory, but played in a more defensive way to limit the size of the loss.

Despite the manner of the defeat, Ferguson insisted that United will recover and close the five-point gap 弥补五分的差距 that now separates them and City.
