    What a save from Dean Henderson because that is Riyad Mahrez at his best! Running down the heart of the pitch. What a save and what a strike.

    Joao Cancelo has grown into this Manchester City side and the Premier League. He's looking strong now and he is adding to City's play.

    Almost a brilliant goal from Riyad Mahrez. He runs from the halfway line as United's defenders back off and his effort from 25 yards is tipped over the bar by Dean Henderson.

    Paul Gourley: Maguire is exposed time and time again when he doesn't have a strong CB alongside him.

    Luke Shaw needs replacing! Always so slow to read the game and looked asleep for the goal. And as ever offering zilch going forward.

    Raheem Sterling plays a clever one-two with Joao Cancelo but Dean Henderson is quickly off his line to stop Sterling getting the return ball.

    Uncle Busby: Starting to look like 4 consecutive semi-finals United have failed to turn up, very worrying. This sort of thing can become a habit, almost.

    Shane O'Neil: Terrible free-kick to give away, but McTominay does it on a frequent basis. Very poor. Utd need to step it up. Far too casual so far.

    Daddy M&N: Martial playing?

    There was a VAR check for a United penalty for a possible Oleksandr Zinchenko handball but it's not given. Anthony Martial and the Ukrainian were all over each other.

    So close. Joao Cancelo whips in a right-wing cross as City keep the pressure on from the corner and it's inches away from Phil Foden, who threw himself at the ball.

    Paul Pogba finds Scott McTominay and for a moment a gap opens up but the Scot is tackled in the biox.

    City counter and Raheem Sterling has a header tipped around the post by Dean Henderson.

    That was John Stones' first goal since the 2018 World Cup - when he scored twice against Panama. His last goal in club football was in 2017.

    Richard: Unforgivable defending.

    Sushant Shetty: Maguire just let it run past him in the penalty box ...5 year old kids don't make that mistake and this is the world's most expensive defender ... unbelievable.

    That was poor all-round from Manchester United.

    Scott McTominay gave away a silly free-kick in a dangerous area and United didn't defend it well at all.

    It's almost 2-0. Joao Cancelo smashes a shot in from outside the box which flies just over the bar. Dean Henderson couldn't even move. Pep Guardiola has his head in his hands.

    What celebrations. They are absolutely delighted! John Stones - whether the team is delighted for him or whether it's just that they have gone in front.

    It was just one of those balls that's whipped in and it bounced in between the Manchester United defenders, Stones gambled and I think it just hit him on the thigh.

    There was a VAR check in case John Stones handled it but he did not. Goal stands.

    John Stones

    John Stones scores a rare goal and it's a big one.

    Kevin de Bruyne steps over the free-kick and Phil Foden whips it in. The ball bounces past a few players for both sides and Stones deflects the ball past Dean Henderson with his thigh.

    City lead the Manchester derby.

    I don't think that was card-worthy at all for any of the players. They had a bit of a roll around, a bit of a tangle of legs.

    First booking of the night as Fernandinho slides in on Paul Pogba, taking the United player's legs without getting near the ball.
