The Manchester derby is taking place between City and United in the 16th round of the English Premier League. Both teams approached the match in poor form and were eager to end their winless runs.
The first half was quite dull and lacked dangerous moments, but the hosts managed to open the scoring. After a corner kick, Joško Gvardiol delivered a great header, sending the ball past André Onana.
Notably, this goal was Gvardiol's eighth in the Premier League, making him the highest-scoring defender since the start of last season.
A win in the derby would allow Pep Guardiola’s side to close the gap on Liverpool and move back into the top 4 of the standings.
