Arguably the biggest result for Ruben Amorim as Manchester United manager so far. A win at Etihad Stadium against Premier League champions Manchester City is no small feat. That too, coming behind from 1-0 in the last 20 minutes to posting 1-2 at the final whistle.
The latest win will surely give the Red Devils the much-needed boost and confidence hike ahead of their fixture against Tottenham Hotspur in the EFL Cup quarter-final this week.

Andre Onana (6/10): The goalkeeper had a mixed game and nothing he could’ve done to save the only goal that Manchester United conceded.
Matthijs de Ligt (6/10): Decent game, nothing much to complain or praise. Interestingly, he looked comfortable on the ball.
Harry Maguire (7/10): Solid enough to keep Erling Haaland in check. Also showed sheer leadership on the pitch.
Lisandro Martinez (6/10): Confident enough to manage things around. Notably, released Amad Diallo with a clever pass.
Noussair Mazraoui (5/10): Dealt the Jeremy Doku threat effectively but couldn’t contribute enough on the offensive front.
Manuel Ugarte (6/10): Disrupted City’s flow with his physicality and interceptions in the middle of the park.
Bruno Fernandes (5/10): Couldn’t make enough impact but stepped up when needed the most. Converted the penalty to score the equalizer.
Diogo Dalot (5/10): WHe wasbeaten in the air which led to a goal for Manchester City. Could’ve done more to create chances from the left flank.
Amad Diallo (8/10): The Red Devils’ most lightning attacker by distance. Also scored a brilliant winner to give joy to the United fans.
