Manchester City were leading until the 88th minute of this match, but ended up losing 2-1 – the latest into a game that a reigning champion has led in a Premier League game and lost. The team leading at half time of both Manchester derbies in the Premier League in 2024 has gone on to lose (3-1 to Man City in March and 2-1 to Man Utd in December).

Manchester City looked set for a rare win. It was unconvincing, but it was something. Then Amad Diallo came along and turned it to nothing.

It was a much-needed confidence boost for the 31-year-old, who has been tipped for an exit from Old Trafford in recent weeks.
