"United flew out of the traps as Harry Maguire headed against the crossbar from close range only three minutes in, while they were also denied by the offside flag twice in the first half. Amad Diallo and Bruno Fernandes both rounded Gianluigi Donnarumma and tapped home only to see the flag raised, while Dorgu forced a good reaction save from Donnarumma."
"Mbeumo started and finished a fluid counter-attack from a City free-kick in the 65th minute, rolling his finish across Donnarumma after being teed up by Fernandes. And Dorgu effectively killed the contest when he swept home from Matheus Cunha's right-wing cross in the 76th minute, with United passing up further chances to make the scoreline more emphatic. Amad fired against the post after turning Nathan Ake inside-out,"
Michael Carrick returned for a second stint as Manchester United manager and secured a 2-0 derby win over Manchester City at Old Trafford. Bryan Mbeumo opened the scoring in the 65th minute after a counter-attack finished by Bruno Fernandes, and Patrick Dorgu sealed victory in the 76th minute from Matheus Cunha's cross. United had several efforts ruled out for offside, Harry Maguire hit the crossbar early, and Amad struck the post. City had a notable chance blocked, and United climb temporarily into the top four while Carrick remains unbeaten in four games.
