Manchester City moved eleven points clear at the top of the Premier League by beating bitter rivals United 2-1.

City dominated much of the first-half and took the lead when David Silva smashed in from six-yards.

However, with half-time fast approaching, Marcus Rashford capitalised on a Fabian Delph error to level the score.

But that didn't last for long. In the second-half, Romelu Lukaku failed to clear a corner allowing Nicolas Otamendi to belt the ball home from close-range.

City managed to hold on and now the Premier League title is firmly in their hands, even through half of the season still remains.
