Manchester United came back from behind to beat Manchester City 2-1 at the Etihad. Here are our player ratings from the game
With Pep Guardiola’s team leading after 88 minutes through Josko Gvardiol’s first-half header, Amad won a penalty which was converted by Bruno Fernandes, then netted a dramatic late winner.
At fulltime, Manchester City’s manager Pep Guardiola has commended United’s best player in the Manchester derby, in the person of Harry Maguire.
The England’s defender was arguably United’s best defender. Very good in the middle of the three-man defence. Stuck to Erling Haaland like glue and ensured the Norwegian never truly threatened.
Some very crucial blocks and tackles inside the box. An unsung hero for United against their cross-town rivals.
Speaking about Harry Maguire’s performance, Pep Guardiola said…
“He had an excellent game, You can say he’s ready to D*ie to make sure we lost… He held our forwards and lucked up the defense”
“We can easily win and defend, if he played for Us” Pep Added!!!
Pep Guardiola’s crumbling empire was pitted against the ancient ruins of Alex Ferguson’s dynasty and you couldn’t see any world-class quality for dust.
