Pep Guardiola has promised to bury the hatchet with Jose Mourinho when his Manchester City side come up against Manchester United in Monday's pre-season friendly.
The pair have found themselves living and working in the same city this summer and this season's Manchester derby is already a hot topic amongst its football-orientated residents.
However, the first Manchester derby will take place very, very far away from either the Etihad or Old Trafford with the venue of choice 5,000 miles away in China's capital city of Beijing.
While it may be a strange place for the occasion, there was still expected to be plenty of heat between Guardiola and Mourinho with many pundits hoping to see them face off for an early mental advantage.
Guardiola has already admitted he wants to win the meaningless friendly match, which will be played in a half empty stadium after poor ticket sales, but has refused to entertain the idea of touchline antics between him and the Special One.
