In what felt like matchday 22 of the 2025-26 season, United broke a tense deadlock and never looked back, igniting jubilant scenes among the home faithful.
The clash stayed goalless for over an hour, with both sides probing cautiously in the bitter January cold.
Tension peaked around the 65th minute when United launched a devastating counterattack.
Bryan Mbeumo, the summer signing who has quickly become a Red Devils talisman, coolly slotted home the opener after a lightning-fast break involving several United players in red surging past City’s light blue defense.
United’s dominance grew, and they doubled the lead shortly after the 71st minute through Dorgu with the assistance of Cunha, cruising to a clean-sheet masterclass that silenced the visitors.
This win ramps up pressure on City while boosting United’s top-four push, marking one of their most convincing derby displays in years.
