The derby between the two football rivals from Manchester became a clear affair for City on Sunday. The champions celebrated a commanding 3-0 win against United at Old Trafford and are still level on points with second-place Arsenal in third place. Leaders Tottenham are two points away. Liverpool are still one point less than ManCity after their 3-0 home win against Nottingham.
Pep Guardiola’s team had more of the game against Man United from the start; the visitors’ lead came from a penalty. Rodri was saved in the penalty area by Rasmus Höjlund, Erling Haaland safely converted (26′). Shortly before half-time, the Norwegian missed a chance when his header was denied by United goalie Andre Onana. From a similar position, Haaland made it 2-0 in the 49th minute and also set up Phil Foden’s third goal in an exemplary manner for the Champions League winner (80th).
Liverpool didn’t show any weakness at Anfield Road against Nottingham, although the “Reds” were thinking about team-mate Luis Díaz. The Colombian international’s parents were kidnapped in his home country on Saturday. At least the mother has already been saved. After his goal to make it 1-0, Diogo Jota ran to the Liverpool bench and held up the number seven Díaz jersey (31′).
Darwin Núñez increased the score to 2-0 (35′) after a perfect pass from Dominik Szoboszlai. After the break, Mohamed Salah took advantage of a mistake by keeper Turner after another Szoboszlai assist to make the final score 3-0 (77th).
