Pep Guardiola once again showcased his mastery of the Manchester derby as Manchester City delivered a convincing victory over Manchester United at Old Trafford, marking the first such win since 2021.
The match, intended as a tribute to the late Sir Bobby Charlton, turned into a lopsided contest, concluding with a 3-0 victory for the Cityzens. Erling Haaland opened the scoring for the visitors with a penalty at Old Trafford and secured a brace, bringing his tally to 20 away goals in 23 appearances. Haaland also contributed with an assist to Phil Foden.
United struggled to make an impact during the game, managing only three shots on target compared to City’s ten. Despite the loss, United fans could credit Andre Onana for his outstanding saves that prevented Haaland from securing a hat-trick.
