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.
