Nigerian international, Kelechi Iheanacho, continued his impressive scoring form in the first Manchester Dearby of the season on Saturday with one goal and one assist. Iheanacho who was on the pitch for 53 minutes, replaced Sergio Aguero, who is serving a 3-match ban, in the starting line-up. He assisted the first goal and scored the second as Pep Guardiola’s men defeated Jose Mourinho’s United side at Old Trafford. Kevin De Bruyne got the opening goal off an assist from Iheanacho in the 15th minute. United were two goals down in the 34th minute as Iheanacho enjoyed a simple tap in off a bound shot. The derby goal for Iheanacho was his 9th Premier League goal. United reduced the deficit before half time when Zlatan Ibrahimovic pounced on a goalkeeping error to score his 4th league goal of the season. City have now won all their games so far this season, halting their city rivals’ winning run in the process.
