After just eight minutes, Marcus Rashford scored a miracle goal to put United ahead.

However, before halftime, City pushed for a draw and Mainoo’s heroics were needed to hold United ahead.

Despite Mainoo’s defensive prowess, he could do nothing to stop Foden’s stunning equaliser on the hour mark.

And it was his England team-mate who later put City ahead with ten minutes to go and seal a second-half double.

Erling Haaland then wrapped up the three points in added time to condemn United to a 3-1 defeat.
