Haaland doubles up as City sweep United aside in Manchester derby

Erling Haaland urged Manchester City to “get our asses going”, then showed how with the second and third goals that sealed this 197th derby for Pep Guardiola’s men, and ended a two-defeat run.

This is no vintage City iteration – currently, at least – but witnessing how the prolific Norwegian bagged his strikes, and performed throughout, suggests their main man is up for leading the revival.
