Michael Carrick reaction to huge Manchester United win vs Man City.
A second half one-two from Bryan Mbeumo and Patrick Dorgu gave Michael Carrick the perfect start to his stint in the Manchester United hotseat as the Red Devils clinched a statement victory over City in the derby.
United started like a house on fire and should have taken the lead through Harry Maguire, who could only head against the crossbar from yards out after just three minutes. More chances came for both sides, including a disallowed goal for Amad, before Bruno Fernandes‘ fine fun and composed finish was chalked off by the officials, the Portugal international offside by a toe.
Gianluigi Donnarumma produced a world-class double save minutes into the second half to thwart Amad and Casemiro in quick succession, but Mbeumo did find a way to beat the imperious Italian with a fine low strike just after the hour mark.
Dorgu, impressive again in a more attacking role, made the result safe in the 76th minute to clinch the bragging rights on for the red half of Manchester on a derby day they will remember for quite some time.
