Events

Match Events

0' The game is set. Manchester United FC kicks off things out of here…
5' Kevin De Bruyne has been a constant threat and now delivers with a goal on 5 minutes.
10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
15' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
20' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
22' Against the run of play, Jadon Sancho has scored! This game has turned on its head.
27' Fred has been relatively quiet despite scoring 17 goals in his last 411 appearances.
28' with the perfectly-timed delivery and Kevin De Bruyne makes no mistake. 2-1!
33' Marcus Rashford needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 1 Red cards this season.
38' will be watching from the dugout nervously. His Manchester City FC side need to improve if they are to claim all three points.
43' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
48' Both teams are passing the ball around with high level of urgency. Manchester United FC needs to do something about it to get closer to the goal.
53' It looks like no one’s ball. Manchester City FC is used to counterattacking playing. None of the sides are ready to take the lead.
58' Over 58 minutes have gone by without a meaningful attack. The supporters want more.
63' The referee reaches into his pocket. Out comes the Yellow card for Harry Maguire.
64' The supporters are chanting for Jesse Lingard. He replaces Anthony Elanga on 64 minute.
65' Manchester United FC ring the changes. Paul Pogba has done his job and it is now time for Marcus Rashford to step up.
68' A goal from the Algeria international Riyad Mahrez! He fires home on 68 to make it 3-1!
73' Manchester United FC have won 678 goals from 411 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
78' Bernardo Silva, a Portugal , has 50 bookings this season and will need to keep his discipline tonight.
80' Ilkay Gundogan is replacing Kevin De Bruyne for the Manchester City FC side.
85' A tactical chess match is unfolding here. The question is which manager blinks first.
90' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Manchester United FC that had 411 games and scored 678 goals.
Another three points for Manchester City FC.
