Manchester City cruised to a dominant 3-0 victory over rivals Manchester United in Sunday’s derby at the Etihad Stadium. Phil Foden opened the scoring in the 18th minute, finishing from a Jeremy Doku assist to give Pep Guardiola’s men a first-half lead.
City’s dominance carried into the second half as Erling Haaland doubled the advantage in the 53rd minute, again set up by Doku. The Norwegian striker struck again 15 minutes later, this time combining with Bernardo Silva, to seal the win and underline City’s superiority.
Despite multiple substitutions from both sides, United struggled to create clear chances, with Casemiro and Joshua Zirkzee coming on in the 80th minute but failing to turn the tide. City, meanwhile, continued to press, with late cameos from Savinho, Oscar Bobb, and Nathan Aké keeping the momentum in their favor. The result cements City’s dominance in Manchester, extending their unbeaten run in the Premier League.
