City compound Ole woes; dispatch United at Old Trafford
Manchester United who are yet to recover from a devastating 5-0 defeat to Liverpool, were drubbed by Manchester City in the English Premier League game.
City grabbed deserved three points in the Saturday afternoon starter, beating United 2-0 at Old Trafford, giving more impetus to United fans calling for the sack Ole Gunnar Solskjær.
Under intense pressure, United’s Eric Bailly conceded an own goal to visiting City barely seven minutes into the game.
City doubled their lead as Bernardo Silva scored in the 45th minute seeing City go into the break with a two goal lead at the Old Trafford.
United returned for the second half struggling but could not make a headway as City continued to dominate the game.
United now have 17 points in 11 games, having won 5, lost 4 and drawn 2 games so far this season. They are tentatively placed fifth on the EPL log pending other matches coming up later on Saturday.
