Erling Haaland scores his and Manchester City's second goal during the Premier League game against Manchester United at Old Trafford. Photograph: Catherine Ivill/Getty ImagesErling Haaland’s double helped Manchester City secure derby day delight as lifeless rivals Manchester United were outclassed in an embarrassing home defeat.
Ragtag defending allowed Haaland to head home another in a one-sided win that Foden added late gloss to. The referee eventually pointed to spot and Haaland kept his cool, sending Onana the wrong way and wheeling off in celebration in front of the furious home fans. In hindsight, the young striker may wish he had gone down after John Stones’s physical defending in the build-up.
After Fernandes and Foden traded efforts, the visitors capitalised on United’s poor defensive structure and Bernardo Silva clipped a cross to unmarked Haaland to head home at the far post.
