Manchester City delivered a statement performance on Sunday, dismantling Manchester United 3-0 in a one-sided Premier League derby at the Etihad Stadium.
Erling Haaland was at the heart of the action once again, scoring twice in the second half after Phil Foden had put City ahead early in the game.
Despite missing a golden opportunity, the Norwegian striker redeemed himself with a brace that sealed United’s fate and added further pressure on under-fire manager Ruben Amorim.
City entered the match looking to bounce back after suffering two straight league losses and they did so in emphatic fashion, controlling the game from start to finish.
Haaland’s goals were his latest reminder of his lethal presence in front of goal, while United’s poor form under Amorim continues to raise questions about the direction of the club.
The result not only restores City’s momentum in the title race but also deepens the crisis at Old Trafford, where frustration is growing over inconsistent performances and lack of identity.
