Manchester City were comfortable U23 derby winners against Manchester United on Saturday.

City's Elite Development Squad produced a superb 3-1 win over United in the Premier League 2 at the Academy Stadium.

An incredible 10 minute period saw James McAtee convert from the spot before City capitalised on two mistakes from the United defence as Kayky and Oscar Bobb made it three before the half-time break.

United would pull one back as Joe Hugill capitalised on a mistake from CJ Egan-Riley, but it would prove to just be a mere consolation as City deservedly claimed the three points.

The win moves City to just two points behind leaders West Ham United, although the Hammers do now have a game in hand.
