By db-admin

DBasia.news –  Manchester United (MU) successfully humiliated city rivals, Manchester City, in Week 16 of the Premier League match, Sunday (8/12) AM. Coming to the Etihad Stadium, Manchester United won 1-2.

After conquering Spurs’ former coach, Jose Mourinho’s, team 2-1 last week, United won the same score at home to the city team, Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

The victory in the 179th edition of the Manchester derby has put United up to fifth place and only five points adrift of the Champions League slot after Chelsea, who finished fourth, surprisingly lost at Everton.

“I think you need to focus on the results of your own matches, do not look at the results of other teams, continue to win the match,” Maguire said as quoted by Sky Sports, Monday (9/12).

“We have won consecutive matches against Spurs and City. We have a big match again next week.”

The top four are right in front of us, but we continue to look after our own results, keep trying to achieve three points and keep improving.

Goals from Marcus Rashford and Anthony Martial helped the Red Devils succeed as derby winners, their third away win against City in the league over the past five seasons. (Source Sky Sports)
