Marcus Rashford served notice that Manchester United are back with a dramatic late winner that sent Old Trafford into the kind of frenzy not seen for a while in this part of town.
Rashford steered home a late close-range finish to floor bitter rivals Manchester City as Erik ten Hag's side scored twice in four minutes to leave the champions beaten. The born-and-bred Mancunian striker has now scored eight times against City - and local bragging rights now belong to the Reds.
But the character United demonstrated to hit back after Jack Grealish had headed the visitors into the lead suggests that this victory in the 187th Manchester derby won’t be just another false dawn. The Red Devils are just a point behind City and six points off Premier League pacesetters Arsenal.
