Manchester United-Manchester City 0-0
Manchester United and Manchester City played 0-0 at Old Trafford on Saturday night. The match was characterized by two teams taking minimal risk.
Manchester United are in 7th place with 20 points after the derby. Manchester City is in second place with 19 points. Tottenham leads the Premier League with 24 points.
– Solskjær needed an answer and got it from his players, concluded Øyvind Alsaker.
– Solskjær is probably happy and relieved, despite needing more Old Trafford points than the team has managed to rack up so far this autumn. But one point against City is for living, Alsaker continues.
Responded to squeezes and small talk
After the game, there was a joyous pass between the players. The clamps were loose. He provoked Sky Sports experts Gary Neville and Roy Keane.
– There were two yellow cards in a derby. I’ve never seen so much squeeze and small talk after a derby. I scratch my head and am frustrated, says Keane.
– You play for Manchester United to win football matches. Don’t be friends with everyone, continue.
Gary Neville says performance is weak.
– There was no will and intention to win the match. If it had been José Mourinho in charge of one of the teams, we would have killed him now. We had said that it was not enough, that you parked the bus and that it was boring. It was really weak, says Neville.
Ole Gunnar Solskjær was pleased with the performance.
– In my time, this is the best performance we have done against Manchester City. Not the best result, but the best performance, says Solskjær.
– It was a close match between two good teams. We beat them a couple of times last season, but there were different games. Then we counter. Today is the game with which we have been most in possession and control of the ball. We kept them away from our box, says Solskjær.
Great opportunity from Mahrez
He was far between chances before the break. Scott McTominay was closer to the home team when he ran free at the back post, but the ball came a little too fast on the shot. Manchester City created the biggest chance of the round after 35 minutes. A good old-fashioned handball shot gave Riyad Mahrez a golden opportunity to send the light blues ahead, but De Gea saved the end of the win with a good parade.

Aimed at the penalty spot
Two minutes after the break, referee Chris Kavanagh pointed to the penalty spot when Kyle Walker fired Marcus Rashford in the 16-meter area. The referee’s decision was reversed by the VAR when it turned out that Rashford was offside prior to the situation.
The civil war continued for the first twenty minutes. Then the visiting team began to gradually approach. Kevin De Bruyne had a great chance to put Maguire on top of another goal in the 67th minute, but his shot over the bar.
