The best reaction to City 1 - 2 United

It was another memorable Manchester Derby

Manchester City 1 - 2 Manchester United

Let's explore some of the best reaction

Here's some of the European Super Football report

City had looked set for the win after Josko Gvardiol’s first-half header, but United turned the game on its head in the dying moments, securing a crucial early triumph for new manager Ruben Amorim.

The standout performer was Amad Diallo, who won an 88th-minute penalty after being brought down by Matheus Nunes. Bruno Fernandes coolly converted to level the score. Moments later, Diallo capitalised again, slotting home from a tight angle to complete the turnaround.

It was a game of few clear chances, with both sides struggling to create much of note. United appeared to have squandered their best opportunity to equalise when Fernandes, put through by Rasmus Højlund, chipped Ederson but missed the target with 17 minutes remaining.

However, the match erupted in the final moments, leaving City’s fans frustrated and jeering, while United’s supporters celebrated wildly in their corner of the stadium.

City v United - United fans and players celebrate

What did the United fans at Super Reds News have to say?

The dramatic win was as surprising as it was thrilling. For much of the match, the game had been a scrappy and uninspired affair, seemingly destined for an uneventful conclusion.

Then, a late surge from our red shirted heroes changed everything. Ruben Amorim, still in the early days of his tenure, will cherish this victory as a key milestone in earning the trust and admiration of the club’s fans.

City, uncharacteristically lacklustre under Pep Guardiola, failed to truly test United’s defence. Despite their subdued display, United had struggled to create chances themselves, aside from Fernandes’ earlier miss.

The official Manchester City reaction

The City boss said via Twitter/X: " We can't defend that. It's not about this or that player. We gave away goals, our fault. We don't play with composure. The results are not good, the game was not exceptional. I know the situation, I understand but the reality is this... 

"We have to play better. The result will help us to take our best but right now we don't have it. The way I learn is to keep going."
