Manchester United is decimating city rivals ad current Champions of England Manchester City. The Citizens are now at the lowest in their title contest against Liverpool.

The Manchester derby was full of excitement and hype but the visitors were the underdogs ahead of the match, but surprisingly Manchester United has dominated on the scoreboard.

Although, it was a major error by Manchester City, which is leading towards their demise in this match. Bernardo Silva made a huge foul on Marcus Rashford inside his 18-yard-box which awarded the Red Devils a penalty.

Initially, Anthony Taylor denied to award penalty to Manchester United but later his decision was overturned by VAR, which spotted the foul made by the Portuguese International.

Rashford himself raised to take the penalty for his team and places the ball on the right bottom corner, making it difficult for Ederson to guess and the Brazilian goes to the other side.
