Former Manchester United icon Rio Ferdinand was left fuming by Manchester City kitchen staff after being presented with a bright blue birthday cake at the Etihad.

The ex-Red Devils and England defender was on TNT Sports punditry duty on Tuesday night at the home of his old enemies City for the club's 3-0 win over Young Boys in the Champions League.

First half goals from Erling Haaland and Phil Foden - before a second from the Norwegian and a red card to the Swiss side's midfielder Sandro Lauper in the second half - helped City secure qualification for the second round with two games to go.
