Manchester United made a dramatic late comeback to defeat rivals Manchester City 2-1 at Old Trafford on Saturday.<\/p>\n

After Jack Grealish gave City the lead on 60 minutes, United rally to score twice through Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford within five minutes late to continue their impressive home run, which has seen them lose just once in front of their own fans in the Premier League this season.<\/p>\n

Following their Carabao Cup defeat to Southampton, it was anticipated City would be quick out of the blocks, but it was United who enjoyed the better chances in a cagey first half.<\/p>\n

The in-form Rashford threatened throughout and nearly opened the scoring on 34 minutes.<\/p>\n

A ball over the top of the City defense caused panic as Rashford took the ball past the onrushing Ederson, but as the England forward cut back inside to finish, Manuel Akanji stood firm to make an important block off the line.<\/p>\n

Just four minutes later, Rashford had another great chance to break the deadlock. After being found by a Christian Eriksen pass down the left, he raced toward Ederson but a heavy touch meant the City goalkeeper could save at his feet.<\/p>\n

The lively but so far fruitless Rashford then caused a scare as he went down injured. However, he returned to the pitch two minutes later, albeit looking labored in his movement.<\/p>\n
