A big three points for Man Utd.
Manchester United ended their winless run against Man City in the most resounding way possible after Van Gaal’s men hammered the champions 4-2 at Old Trafford.
It all looked so differently for the champions after Sergio Aguero opened the scoring but United hit back in resounding style, running out 4-2 winners, as Van Gaal’s side consolidate their grip on the Champions League spot.
Here’s some of the best tweets.

Did I just see De Gea and Zabaleta shake hands and smile at each other in the tunnel? Before a derby game!? Two lads that obvs don't care

Funny how much easier the game is when you play a sensible system. City off to a flying start.

City are winless in last 86 PL matches they have trailed at half time. United have never lost a PL match at Old Trafford having led at HT.

Remember when we all thought United would be shit for years, and then they went and spent £150m? Good times.
