What were the key moments from the Merseyside derby?
It's Raheem Sterling! They've done it! Sane, good side. Very good side. What a pulsating performance this has been from Manchester City. Delph looking to get in on the act.
De Bruyne.
Oh, bouncer!
There is no stopping that. It is simply scintillating from Manchester City. De Bruyne for Sane. Off they go again.
Oh, what a goal.
Another great move by Manchester City.
Jesus!
As easy as that! It is De Bruyne. It's two. It's clinical. And the follow-up goes into the back of the net. Raheem Sterling peels away at celebration. It's Raheem Sterling! That wins titles! Brilliantly finished by David Silva.
It's the late show again.
The best winning run in the history of top division football in England. And what a place to break the record in a single season. We asked if United could stop them, but they have been swatted aside like the rest. Big performance again from Fabian Delph. He was key again, and both giving their reaction to Jeff Shreves.
How did Manchester City manage to dominate the game?
Fabian, Kevin, record-breaking 14th victory, but surely that's the sweetest of the lot.
Yeah, it's the sweetest of the lot. Derbys are always like this, hectic, end-to-end stuff, but we had a game plan, we stuck to it, and, yeah, we've come away happy. Our fans are happy and we're going to celebrate in there in a minute.
How big an achievement is this, Kevin? What's the significance of today's victory?
It's just to put more pressure on the rest. I think a lot of teams lost points this weekend, so it was a big one for us. But obviously now we have to enjoy it and then we have to focus on Wednesday because it keeps going.
Did the game go exactly as you planned?
Well, if you come with a 1-0 lead, yes, and then the 1-1, no. But obviously, it's the way it goes. Two teams have a lot of quality. I think it was a nice game to watch, a lot of intensity, duels. Yeah, a real derby, I would say. Fabian, what happened on the goal? Were you slightly unsighted by Nicolas Otamendi?
I thought he won the header. I'm learning. I'm learning on the job every game, game by game. I'll learn from that. I anticipated him winning the header. He's not. The ball's bounced and, you know, I was surprised by it. It's hit my leg and he's gone through and scored. But, thankfully, I've got teammates like this guy and people on the team that can pull me out of the wards, really. And, yeah, they've done well for me today. 11 points the gap now. What is...
Is it basically one hand on the Premier League or is it far too early to say that because we're not even halfway?
What impact did Kevin De Bruyne have on the match?
It's far too early. I've said it in the past that we're taking it each game as they come, game by game. We're not looking in the past, we're not looking in the future, we're just looking on the day, three o'clock on a Saturday or whenever we're playing and you know how to win three points game by game.
Kevin, how significant is an 11-point lead at this stage?
Well, obviously, it's a big gap. So it means if we ever slip up, we're still in the lead. But we cannot go get any complacency. I think we need to do the same what we do already all the year and keep focused. We want to win the title. We need to go forward and do the same and be very focused. But does this feel like a step towards the title? Well, we can talk about it later. Obviously, I prefer to be 11 points ahead than 11 points behind. That's for sure.
OK, no trophies today, other than the Premier League man of the match. You certainly do get that today for your performance, Kevin. Well played.
Thank you, thank you.
Well, he's going to need a bigger mantelpiece, isn't he, because he's been collecting those all season. 2-1 it finished to Manchester City, seven attempts on target to United's five, from 44 touches in the opposition box to United's ten. That's the second lowest they've managed this season, the lowest certainly here at Old Trafford. The City ran six kilometres further today. four yellow cards for United. One of those may be contentious in their view for Ander Herrera, but for diving in the box, we'll have a look at that in just a moment. City, probably as you would expect these days, bossing possession almost twice as many passes.
