Marcus Rashford opens the scoring in the Manchester derby with a goal worthy of its own category.
When you play against Man City at the Etihad, you need a lot of things to go your way. That’s how I feel after watching the first 10 minutes of the 192nd Manchester derby.
Bruno Fernandes, played in a false nine role, held the ball up superbly for Rashford who ran onto the ball from outside the box before striking an absolute screamer into the back of the net.
The ball crashed off the crossbar before crossing the line as Ederson was left with no chance whatsoever.

Hopefully United can keep this lead until half-time. That should be our next milestone.
