Man City's Toure hails 'massive victory' over Man Utd

Yaya Toure was delighted to have played a part in Manchester City's 4-1 derby win over Manchester United on Sunday.

City dominated at the Etihad Stadium with first-half goals from Sergio Aguero and Toure before Aguero added a second early in the second half and Samir Nasri made it 4-0 in the 50th minute.

Wayne Rooney pulled one back for United late but the damage had been done with Toure full of praise for the way his teammates went about it.

"I think it's a massive victory today. The team played very well, and defended very well against a good team," he told Sky Sports.

"In the first half, we scored two fantastic goals which gave us a massive advantage for the second half. I got lucky - I was in the right position."
