Man City player ratings vs Manchester United as Foden class and Haaland finds perfect response

Phil Foden scored twice to lead Manchester City to victory in the 192nd Manchester derby.

Marcus Rashford stunned the Etihad inside the opening 10 minutes with an unstoppable effort thrashed past Ederson after Bruno Fernandes had knocked the ball back for him. A frustrating first half followed for the Blues, who had 17 shots to United's two but went in behind after Erling Haaland missed a sitter.

United tried to defend their lead in the second half but Foden scored twice and Haaland added a third to give City the win that pushes them closer to the top of the table while worsening United hopes of making the top four. Here are the player ratings from the game.

Walker: Generally good going forward and useful countering Rashford's pace, although got a ticking off from Guardiola for trying to force the game. 7

Stones: Pushed forward well linking the team, and was one of the most patient in possession. 7

Dias: Beaten by Fernandes for the United goal and a few ropey moments in the first half but stepped up as the game went on. 7

De Bruyne: Seemed to rush the ball too often looking for that killer ball that never really came off. 6

Silva: Not as sharp as he
