Erling Haaland's second-half goal, confirmed after a lengthy VAR check, gave Manchester City a 1-0 win over Manchester United at Old Trafford despite Phil Foden's first-half red card.
- Phil Foden was sent off in the first half, leaving City to play with 10 men for more than 70 minutes.
- Haaland's goal made him the Premier League's all-time top scorer in the Manchester derby with nine goals in eight appearances, surpassing Sergio Aguero and Wayne Rooney (eight each).
- City manager Enzo Maresca said referee Michael Oliver was right to dismiss Foden but that United captain Bruno Fernandes should also have been sent off.
- The win extended City's perfect start to the season, keeping them level on points with Arsenal at the top of the Premier League.
