Manchester City 1-2 Manchester United

Manchester City 1-2 Manchester United: Amad Diallo’s late winner completes the comeback for Ruben Amorim’s United as they leap past the Cityzens once again this season.

Pep Guardiola will be furious with such a result after his side took the lead in the first half. A sensational comeback from the Red Devils erases their back-to-back Premier League defeats. In the 195th Manchester Derby, we can certainly say, that Manchester is indeed Red.

A superb cross from Kevin De Bruyne which clamped to the head of the Croatian defender, Josko Gvardiol made the defending champions take the lead. An equalizer through the penalty spot was converted by Bruno Fernandez after Amad Diallo was fouled in the penalty box.

After the equalizer, Ruben Amorim’s men proved to be up for the game after they tried severally to find the back of the net again but was proven futile until a long ball laid by Martinez to Amad Diallo. He was surrounded by City players but managed to escape them and sent the ball over Ederson to the back of the net.

Manchester City who have lost their recent games and also in a poor form drops to the 5th position with 9 points behind league leaders, Liverpool who also dropped points against Fulham at Anfield. Manchester United on the other hand climbs to the 12th position with hopes of securing a top 4 spot at the end of the season.

Amorim’s Manchester United on Thursday will travel to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium to face Ange Postecoglou’s side in the quarter-finals of the League cup before they host Bournemouth at the Old Trafford in the Premier League next weekend. Also, on next Saturday, Pep’s side will travel to Villa Park as they face Unai Emery’s Villa.
