    FT: Man Utd 0-0 Man City!! All over at Old Trafford and I think a draw is fair. City were a bit better overall, but United also played very well. The two keepers had very few saves to make all game and the closest we came to a goal is when United were awarded a penalty for a foul by Walker on Rashford, but the United man was offside in the build up and the VAR rightly took it away. That's all from us, thanks for your company and see you now for RM v Atletico!
  • 92'
    City attack through Jesus, he's offside, play continues and he holds up the ball before passing to KDB who fires over. It was offside anyway.

  • 91'
    Just two added minutes.
  • 90'
    Fernandes!!! He goes for goal from 30 yards and it goes well wide of the goal. Was always difficult to score from there.
  • 88'
    Fernandes shoots from distance and it's easy for Ederson.
