Match momentum
A sea of yellow here. Manchester United barely had any control of the game today.
Very tough afternoon for Erik ten Hag's side.
Man of the match
Without a doubt the SunSport man of the match award goes to Bernardo Silva.
He was absolutely everywhere, and everything he touched seemed to turn to gold.
A mini magisterial maestro at his magnificent best for Manchester City today.
A controversial penalty
There is plenty of chat after this game about the penalty given away by Rasmus Hojlund on Rodri.
It was a free kick, swung into the box and Hojlund just pulled Rodri down in the box.
It is one of them, you see it every week, but this one was given as Rodri was heading towards to dropping zone (The area where the ball was headed into).
Soft, but a penalty nonetheless.
Eleven! Heaven for Erling Haaland
Two goals for Erling Haaland today, and it could've been four or five to be honest.
But he got his tenth and eleventh goals of this Premier League campaign in just ten games.
He is simply sublime, isn't he?
The game was incredible, the whole team and everything."
Erling HaalandDomination from Man City
That was total domination from Man City, and the match stats reflect that.
It was a fairly even first half, with just an Erling Haaland penalty between the two sides.
But the tide changed in the second half, and it was all Man City from there on out.
Bruno whinging again...
Well most people know that Bruno Fernandes loves a moan, and he is having a good old whine here.
He is consistently going at the referee, and most of the Man City players.
The truth is, they were outclassed.

FT. Bruno Fernandes gets booked right before full time, and then the referee blows the whistle to signal the end.
A sigh of relief from plenty of those Manchester United players.
They were dominated from start to finish.

He reacts horribly too.
Awful Antony.

GOAL! Manchester United 0-3 Manchester City
PHIL FODEN MAKES IT THREE!
Rodri strikes a shot from distance, which is parried out by Onana to the feet of Erling Haaland.
The striker unselfishly opts to pass to Foden, instead of going for his hat trick, and it's three.

79. Bernardo Silva has the ball in the centre back position.
He has been absolutely wonderful to watch today.

72. Erling Haaland is denied by Andre Onana again!
Jack Grealish plays a great ball into the striker, who is on the verge of his second Manchester Derby hat-trick.
He gets on the end of hit, but his chipped effort is saved by Onana.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
70. Huge chance for Marcus Rashford.
He chests the ball down inside the box, and sends Kyle Walker the wrong way to create a chance on the volley.
His effort however, is wide of the post.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
67. So, so poor Manchester United.
They pick to ball up in a good position, but McTominay gives it away almost as soon as he gets it.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
65. Bernardo Silva has a go from distance, but it is straight into the arms of Andre Onana.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
63. The introduction of Mason Mount at half time was an interesting one.
United had a pretty good shape in the first half, and Manchester City were not creating too many chances, but in the second half it has been totally the opposite.
Mount has hardly touched the ball, and cannot defend to the same level of Amrabat.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
61. Man City look at their unplayable, brilliant best today.
They are the absolute worst to play against when they are playing like this.
They have pretty much all of the ball, Man Utd can't get out of their half, and they look open at the back too.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
58. Manchester City continue to dominate here, and they have a free kick in the defensive half.
They work it forwards with Foden, then Rodri, and then it goes back again to Ruben Dias to start again.
Manchester United 0-2 Manchester City
55. That is sensational football from Manchester City.
They work it beautifully around the edge of the box.
Stones gets a cross in towards a host of players in the middle, but none of them can quite reach it.
