Manchester United vs Manchester City in picturesIf the celebrations, led by Erling Haaland and Pep Guardiola, seemed a touch excessive with players dancing in front of their fans in the corner as Manchester United’s fans filed out, that was the point. Yes, United might have scored, but it looked all night that if they had City would simply have moved up another gear. City were not at their fluent best in the first half but when they got two up in the second half they were irresistible. Referee Paul Tierney had seen nothing untoward but was called to the monitor by the VAR and gave it, Haaland hammering home the penalty. And with City doubling their lead early in the second half they were able to release the handbrake.
