Manchester City once again asserted their dominance over Manchester United as they eased to victory in Sunday’s derby.
While the first half at the Etihad might have been well-contested between the two sides, the second half was anything but. City well and truly controlled proceedings as their neighbours failed to lay a glove on them.
Having taken a 2-1 lead into the break thanks to Kevin De Bruyne’s first-half brace either side of a Jadon Sancho strike, Riyad Mahrez made sure of the points with his own double after the break to secure a 4-1 win. In truth, it could have been much more for a rampant City side.
