What led to Manchester United's victory over Manchester City?

Unknown 0:06
Cleverset played for Manchester United in the first half to give them the lead over City. Martial sneaking it past Edison there. The manager was delighted and it gave United something to hold on to. City pushed for an equaliser but it created too many great chances. And then that final moment. Scott McTominay firing into the empty net to leave City heartbroken. And United jubilant. Let's hear from Scott McTominay with Jeff Shreves.
Scott McTominay 0:33
Scott, what a wonderful moment, how beautiful did that feel? Yeah, obviously that was such a sweet moment, especially in the game where we could have done with another goal early on to finish the game, but no, credit to the boys who were top draw today, we had a sticky first 15-20 minutes, but you see how much it means to the boys winning the derby again, so that's three times this year, so what we have to keep going, it's a game where we have to take confidence from, but the coming weeks we have to really go for some proper results and keep this run going.
Jeff Shreeves 0:57
It was a lovely finish, instinctive, did it just fall right for you?
Scott McTominay 1:01
Yeah, I read the goalkeeper, so you sort of give yourself half a chance, because they're obviously rushing, and you get there before Mendy, so obviously it's such a beautiful feeling in front of our fans in the last nine minutes, so no, can't get too carried away, but we've got to keep going and obviously keep pushing for Champions League.
Jeff Shreeves 1:16
It seemed to have cranked up a notch or two. What did you make of the atmosphere today?
Scott McTominay 1:20
Yeah, it's special. Every game at Old Trafford is special, but these games, your Liverpools, your Arsenals, your Man Citys, they're very, very special atmospheres, and it's a credit to all these fans. Through the thick and the thin of this football club, they're there every week, and it's a real credit, you know, because, you know, it's special. And obviously, for me, it means a lot. Even fans just thinking of your name, one or two people, never mind a whole Sheffield end in Old Trafford. So, no, it's beautiful.
Jeff Shreeves 1:42
Is there a newfound resilience, a newfound belief about Manchester United right now?
Scott McTominay 1:46
Yeah, you can see with the run of games that we've been on, obviously I've been injured for two months, and in myself being injured I was desperate to get back because I can see the progression of the team, and just to come on and help the boys today was a pleasure, and obviously I'm fighting for my place, everybody in this team is not guaranteed a starting spot, and everybody has to keep working every week, so for me that's one of the most important things, keep humble, keep your feet on the ground, and keep pushing forwards with... We've won a game today, fantastic, but it's the next one, and the next one after that.
Jeff Shreeves 2:10
How much more special was the fact it was against your neighbours, your rivals?
Scott McTominay 2:14
Yeah, beautiful. I know some City fans well, one or two, so we've got to rub that one in the face as well. Well done.

How did Scott McTominay contribute to the match?

Scott McTominay 2:20
Top man, thank you very much.
Unknown 2:23
Gary and Jamie have rejoined us. How special is that moment? You've been there, perhaps not with the winning goal in the last seconds, but beating City in that style.
Roy Keane 2:30
It was because, you know, you think about the amount of times we've been in... It's the first time I've raced back to the studio after a game, to be fair. I'm usually back after 20 minutes. Just to rub it in for you. But honestly, it's the first time, not many times over these last few years where I've seen the stadium bouncing like that, where the whole stadium's at it. And a rare moment, but it was a good day for United. They needed it as well. You know, it still doesn't give them what they want in terms of a top four place or Champions League spot or anything like that. But it was a big moment for, I think, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and for those players because they are more confident. They're a bit more positive about what they're doing.
Roy Keane 3:06
It feels like a big moment for the manager, Roy.
Jamie Redknapp 3:08
Yeah, I think so. They've been under a lot of pressure and a lot of criticism over the last, I suppose, year or so.
