Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson admits the title is now Manchester City's to lose.
Ferguson felt his side were poor on the night and conceded the title was now City's to throw away.
"It was feisty, competitive, not a lot of goal chances," the Scot said. "We're disappointed we never tested their goalkeeper.
"They had more threat as they had more action around the edge of our box."
Ferguson lamented the manner of City's goal, which came from a corner right on the stroke of half-time.
"If you lose a goal from a set-piece at this level, you only have yourself to blame for that," he said. "It was a bad time to lose a goal."
He added: "I think they're in the driver's seat now. They've got to win two games of football.
"It's not over yet, but they've got an eight-goal advantage. It's a big advantage."
