Erling Haaland ended Manchester City’s dismantling of Manchester United with a third consecutive home Premier League hat-trick in a chastening afternoon for Erik ten Hag’s team.

This 188th derby was the mother and father of all mismatches, City handing their neighbours a lesson that had them reeling, United 4-0 down at half-time – as at Brentford – and praying, surely, this would not end in a double-digit defeat in full-time. A final humiliation came with 25 minute left when Pep Guardiola made a quadruple substitution, two of those being replaced the scintillating Jack Grealish and Kevin De Bruyne, reports The Guardian.
