#4 Manchester City 2 - 3 Manchester United - 08 January 2012
In a third round fixture of the F.A cup, Manchester United edged out their rivals in a closely contested match-up.
Wayne Rooney broke the deadlock in the tenth minute with an excellent header and gave his side an early advantage in the game.
Manchester City were soon reduced to 10-men as Vincent Kompany was sent-off in the 12th minute for a rash tackle on Nani.
Danny Welbeck struck a sweet volley before Wayne Rooney scored once more to make the score 0-3 in favour of the visitors.
City produced a determined performance in the second half and soon pulled one back through Aleksander Kolarov who beautifully curled in a free-kick past Anders Lindegaard. Sergio Aguero reduced the deficit to one as he pounced on a rebound of his own shot to make it 2-3.
However, City failed to find the equalizer and were eventually knocked out of the cup as the game ended 2-3.
