Match In A Minute - Man Utd 1-2 Man City

Tony Cottee reflects on Manchester City's 2-1 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Kevin De Bruyne handed City a deserved lead early on, slotting home from just outside the area having run through one-on-one, before Kelechi Iheanacho's simple finish made it 2-0 on 36 minutes, reacting after De Bruyne had hit the post.

On his Premier League debut, Claudio Bravo's failure to deal with a deep cross led to Zlatan Ibrahimovic halving the deficit with a volley, while De Bruyne hit the post again for the visitors during a frantic second half full of a chances for both sides.

But Claudio Bravo could have seen red in the game, flying in with studs up on Wayne Rooney after a heavy touch inside the area, but referee Mark Clattenburg was unmoved. 

The result means Pep Guardiola's City continue their 100 per cent start to the season, and in-turn gives the Spaniard his eighth victory over a Jose Mourinho side in 17 meetings.
