STARS IN EUROPE - NIGERIA - CLUB - Kelechi Iheanacho scores as City win Manchester derby

Manchester City Kelechi Iheanacho

 

Nigeria's Kelechi Iheanacho scores as Manchester City beat Manchester United 2:1 to maintain their 100% start to the Premier League season.

Manchester City have won their opening four Premier League fixtures under Pep Guardiola

Pep Guardiola emerged victorious from his first Premier League battle with old adversary Jose Mourinho as Manchester City secured a fully deserved win in a frantic Old Trafford derby.

Kevin de Bruyne's cool finish and Kelechi Iheanacho's tap-in after the Belgian hit the post put City in complete control as they outclassed Mourinho's Manchester United for most of the opening 45 minutes.

United were handed a lifeline just before the break when City's debutant keeper Claudio Bravo summed up his desperately uncertain display by dropping a free-kick to allow Zlatan Ibrahimovic to pull a goal back.

They mounted an aerial siege in front of the Stretford End but City held firm to maintain their position at the top of the table, coming closest to scoring when De Bruyne struck an upright from Leroy Sane's pass.
