Premier League 2018/19: Manchester City v Manchester United - 5 takeaways from the game

#2 Unbeaten run continues for City

Twelve games into the Premier League Guardiola's boys still continue their unbeaten run

Manchester City started the game like they usually do at the Etihad stadium going all guns blazing from the very first minute. David Silva and Bernardo Silva were running the show in the midfield while Sterling and Aguero were keeping the United defence on their toes. Pep Guardiola's side should have scored more in the first half but could not increase their lead.

However, immediately after the break, Sergio Aguero doubled the lead for City with a sumptuous strike. The lead was cut to half by Antony Martial from the spot, but Gundogan's late goal all but confirmed three points for Manchester City.

The victory put Pep Guardiola side as the sole leaders on top surpassing Liverpool who won earlier in the day. They are now twelve games unbeaten and looking like the clear favourites to lift the title again this season. Etihad is becoming a fortress as no one has been able to break City at home till now.
