How City won at Old Trafford

We’ve made some incredible memories across the city in the last 34 years, with the 6-1 demolition in 2011 and Pep Guardiola’s first Manchester derby in 2016 amongst the favourites. This one was only 1-0, but it was the manner of the performance that particularly pleased so many, including manager Enzo Maresca, who danced down the touchline towards the City fans as the final whistle blew.
