This is the worst day in Manchester United's history. Their local rival, Manchester City, crushed Ferguson's side with an impressive 1-6 victory. Mario Balotelli, Agüero, Dzeko and Silva scored for the "Citizens". Fletcher netted the only goal for United, but it was just not enough.
Italian striker Mario Balotelli proved to be the most dangerous weapon in Mancini's squad. He netted twice and showed a shirt with the phrase "Why always me?". Edin Dzeko and David Silva were also extremely important in this unexpected victory.
As for the "Red Devils", they had a hard time in terms of posession and shots on goals. Wayne Rooney was not the different player that saved his team in the past. And the red card for Jonathan Evans, only in the first minutes of the second half, allowed City to display a great game.
Manchester City is the leader of the Premier League with 25 pts. while United remains in the second place with 20.
