Jackson was in Maryland covering United's defeat to Barcelona, and filed a match report shortly after. Probably why he hasn't reported on City's game which took place in LA.

Don't know why people don't just enjoy our performance, rather than going out looking for any perceived snubs or injustices. It's an odd, victim mentality.

Tbf jackson wrote pleny of wank articles thoughout last season when he hadn't attended a game,
The game was was on telly, I am sure be would have saw it.
as I said the Gaurdian which has had 2 people reporting from america were quock to have stories out the other day and still have no match report online an hr n arf later

Having a moan about twats like jackson hasn't diminished the pleasure that game gave me.

No ric, it's bollocks.

Lead story on Mail online is the United match. City's match report is 10th down and below an article where Rooney states that Everton are 'his' club.

If United had beaten Madrid 4-1 then there'd be five separate articles on it. And if anyone was going to comment on such media bias, this seems a decent thread for it.

Strange I have just gone on to Daily Mail sport, on my phone, and it is the lead article.

Not sure of the relevance of the Rooney article. If an iconic city player left and stated another club was his club everyone would be moaning about that article. If anything that article could be construed as a slight against United.
 
Still nothing in Express online, it's as if this game never happened, 6 rag articles

This is the lead story in Mail Online, so yes it is bollocks.

Had to scroll down past the darts in the Mail online, rags were headlines though, not a bad match report though it was full of praise for Sterling, Express, nothing, not a bean, Star nothing, just about to check others out

Yep. though it seems they've bumped it up.
 
I'd completely forgot about the game last night – driving in I put Talkshite on... they reported on the Rags getting beat, then loads about Barkley and Everton... not a fucking peep about us! I know it's only a friendly, but as everyone else says – if the shite from Trafford had put 4 past Real Madrid, there would be a collective media wankathon!

Note on the BBC article. Another list on how much we spent and no mention of Ushited defeat in the headlines but report hidden at the bottom of the page.

Yep, someone added this comment to the comments section:
"More utter bias from the BBC Manchester Evening News.
So Utd's loss get's tagged onto City's win, but when Utd beat RM they get their own headline. Go figure!? Mind you we shouldn't expect anything less from Mcnumpme and his serfs."
