Events
Match Events
- 0' KICK OFF: Manchester United FC gets underway.
- 5' Supporters expect more eagerness from Marcus Rashford, as he is very good at scoring at Old Trafford with 52 goals in the last 41 games.
- 10' Spectators are craving for more action. Both teams play very cautiously. They need to put some more energy.
- 15' It looks surprising Manchester City FC does not make any changes. Andre Onana has some obvious troubles when approaching to the goal.
- 20' Manchester City FC have won 1020 goals from 436 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
- 25' The referee does not hesitate — a Yellow card for Andre Onana on 25 minutes.
- 26' Against the run of play, Erling Haaland has scored! This game has turned on its head.
- 31' The travelling Manchester City FC supporters hardly appreciate their team being pressed down to the backline.
- 36' The energy levels are beginning to show. Erik ten Hag might look to freshen things up shortly.
- 41' named a 4-2-3-1 earlier, and opted for a 4-2-3-1 in response. A fascinating tactical duel is developing.
- 42' Poor challenge from Phil Foden. The referee spots it immediately and shows the Yellow card.
- 46' Another substitution for Manchester United FC to replace Sofyan Amrabat by Mason Mount on 46 minute.
- 50' The Norway Erling Haaland breaks the deadlock on 50 minutes. 0-2!
- 55' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Manchester United FC and Manchester City FC are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
- 60' has dominated the recent head-to-head record, winning 0 of the last 0 meetings.
- 65' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Victor Nilsson-Lindelof suffering a number of foals already.
- 70' Scott McTominay has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
- 73' Victor Nilsson-Lindelof makes way for Reguilon at the 73 minute mark. A tactical switch from Manchester United FC.
- 78' Christian Eriksen is a natural and has been asked to do a very specific job for Manchester City FC tonight.
- 79' GOAL! Phil Foden scores on 79. Assisted by Erling Haaland
- 84' Manchester United FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 86' Marcus Rashford makes way for Anthony Martial at the 86 minute mark. A tactical switch from Manchester United FC.
- 87' A tactical swap from Manchester City FC — Mateo Kovacic on, Julian Alvarez off on 87 minutes.
- 90' Antony catches the referee's attention in entirely the wrong way. Yellow card on 90.
- Another three points for Manchester City FC.
