Man City Beats United 2-1

Manchester City has beat Manchester United 2-1 in an early-season clash of the Premier League title favorites on today (Saturday).

Kevin De Bruyne and Kelechi Iheanacho set each other up for goals in the first 36 minutes, during which Guardiola’s City team gave a footballing clinic in passing and movement at Old Trafford.

Pep Guardiola enjoyed victory over his old nemesis Jose Mourinho as his City side won 2-1 at United in Saturday’s eagerly anticipated derby.

First-half goals by Kevin De Bruyne and Kelechi Iheanacho put City in control and despite new goalkeeper Claudio Bravo’s gaffe allowing Zlatan Ibrahimovic to hit back for United, City held firm.

It was the first encounter between Guardiola and Mourinho, former El Clasico sparring partners, since 2013 and gave the former Barcelona coach an eighth win in 17 encounters with the ex-Real Madrid manager.
