United opened scoring in the second minute of the game after Anthony Martial was brought down in the box by Gabriel Jesus barely a minute into the derby.

The penalty was converted by Bruno Fernandes despite a touch by goalkeeper Ederson.

City took over possession a few minutes after the opening goal but failed to find the back of the net.

In the 50th minute, United double their lead with Luke Shaw finding the back of the net from a Marcus Rashford assist.

The win moves United to second position with 54 points while City remain at the top of the Premier League table with 65 points.

United flew out of the traps in the second half, though, with the in-form Luke Shaw finding the bottom corner after a driving run down the left flank and a one-two with Marcus Rashford.

The result takes United up to second in the table, 11 points behind City with 10 league games to play.
