Manchester United came from behind to beat Manchester City 2-1 in their Premier League derby at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday.

City have one win in their last 11 games in all competitions.

United were trailing to Josko Gvardiol’s first-half header until the 88th minute, when a tepid derby at Etihad Stadium exploded into life as Matheus Nunes fouled Amad Diallo, following a poor backpass, to concede a penalty which was converted by Bruno Fernandes.

Moments later, Amad was put through on goal from Lisandro Martinez’s ball over the top, touching it around the onrushing Ederson before steering a finish into the net from an acute angle to leave the home supporters in stunned silence.

The result deepens the crisis facing City boss Pep Guardiola, whose side have only won one of their last 11 games in all competitions, continuing the club’s worst run of form since 2006.

For United, the victory came after two huge calls by Ruben Amorim, who left Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho out of his squad, citing selection reasons.

Their absences saw Amad pushed into a more advanced role and he duly punished the out-of-sorts hosts for failing to add to Gvardiol’s opener, which was headed home from Kevin De Bruyne’s deflected cross in the first half.

Amorim was also forced to make an early switch as Mason Mount hobbled off after 14 minutes to be replaced by Kobbie Mainoo.

It appeared Guardiola’s side were going to stumble over the line to victory when Fernandes dinked a one-on-one chance wide after Amad had seen a flicked header pushed around the post by Ederson, but City’s implosion allowed Amorim’s side to celebrate a remarkable victory.

Defeat leaves City still in fifth, nine point off leaders Liverpool, who have a game in hand.

United climbed to 12th and within five points of their city rivals.
