Manchester United emerged from the derby with bragging rights after ending the Premier League leaders’ 21-match winning run in all competitions.
Man City 0-2 Manchester United
United went into the game as clear underdogs after failing to score in their previous three games but were awarded a penalty inside the first minute when Anthony Martial was felled in the box by Gabriel Jesus.
Bruno Fernandes dispatched from the spot, despite Ederson getting a strong hand to his penalty, before City grew into the game as the first half went on, dominating in the build-up to the interval.
United flew out of the traps in the second half, though, with the in-form Luke Shaw finding the bottom corner after a driving run down the left flank and a one-two with Marcus Rashford.
The result takes United up to second in the table, 11 points behind City with 10 league games to play.
