94'FT: Man C 4-1 Man U! All over at the Etihad and it was a very comfortable Man C win. KDB saw his opener cancelled out by Sancho's leveller, but KDB scored again in the 28th minute. In the second half, City were the better team and Mahrez got the third before getting another in added time after a VAR review. That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you again soon!
