The Manchester Classic went to The Citizens, with a substantial Norwegian striker who scores a goal per game in his career.
When the Brazilian Antony, the most expensive player in the winter market, delivered the great goal of the discount, the huge Erling Haaland and Phil Foden put the accelerator again, rounding off their show of busted nets. Manchester City 6-3 Manchester United.
The Manchester Derby went to The Citizens with a performance that bordered on perfection, which was developing just the same thanks to the forcefulness of such an influential offensive duo.
Feast at the Etihad Stadium, which sadly, and faced with such humiliation, saw some fans of the visiting squad abandon at half-time, and when the scoreboard was practically in the bag, the host with a resounding 4-0. Poker to cross yourself, Foden, very early, with a great goal at minute eight, opened the electronic; few would have imagined what would come next, but it happened.
Haaland, who has not connected or ordered to do with the City stands, achieved his third hat-trick playing precisely in the fiefdom, and it was the second that was present (34 '), not to change.
Three minutes later, the same Norwegian, with a powerful header that had to be reviewed by the hawk's eye, made it 3-0 in front of some inoffensive Red Devils.
And before the break, Phil did not want to be left behind because at 44', he scored the 4-0 that at that moment seemed to give shape to one more victory.
Antony, with great action, gave his team a break, with 4-1 at 56', but the response of Josep Guardiola's team immediately came, because once again Erling, showing that he is a paragon of virtues and technique, hit the ball as it came to nest it in the back and get his triplet (64').
And the cherry, because it was in combination between the figures of the duel, brought with it the sixth for the home team and the hat-trick by Foden, who, after the assistance of Haaland, shot David de Gea with a strong shot (72').
To put decorum on the scoreboard, already with a Manchester City low in rhythm and decibels, the French Anthony Martial, after taking a rebound and from a penalty, made it 6-2 and 6-3 for Manchester United, which again did not count, by the way, with Cristiano Ronaldo.
