MANCHESTER-(MaraviPost)-Manchester City showcased their superiority in the English Premier League on Sunday, September 14, 2025 evening with a comprehensive 3-0 victory over archrivals Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium.
Phil Foden opened the scoring in the 18 minutes of first half with a composed finish after a brilliant build up, setting the tone for a dominant first half.
Erling Haaland then took center stage, scoring a sensational brace to seal the victory for Pep Guardiola’s men.
Manchester United, under manager Rúben Amorim, attempted to mount a comeback but were toothless in attack and failed to create clear cut chances.
Their defensive frailties were exposed repeatedly as City’s relentless pressing and quick passing dismantled their structure.
This latest defeat adds to United’s growing early season crisis.
The Red Devils have managed just one win in their opening four league matches, collecting only four points and sliding down to 14th place on the table.
In contrast, Manchester City have begun to recover from their own slow start to the season.
The victory lifted them to eighth place with six points from four matches.
The result piles pressure on Amorim ahead of United’s upcoming fixtures including a crucial clash against Newcastle United next weekend.
Supporters are already voicing frustration and demanding a swift turnaround to prevent another disappointing campaign.
