Man United beaten black and blue in first derby of new coach.


David Moyes, Man United new coach was handed his worst defeat in his role as Manchester United new coach when his team was defeated 4 – 1 by Manchester City in their first derby of the season.

It was Manchester United worst defeat at the Etihad Stadium since 2004 as Manchester City ran riot.
Sergio Aguero scored twice, and Yaya Toure and Samir Nasri added further goals, with Wayne Rooney grabbing a consolation in a 4-1 triumph for City manager Manuel Pellegrini in his first Manchester derby.

Tales of two coaches

For United boss David Moyes it was a desperate day, but not all that bad as it was an echo of a 5-1 defeat suffered by his predecessor Sir Alex Ferguson at Maine Road in 1989 before his trophy-gathering had begun.

Robin van Persie was ruled out with a groin injury.


Something good can still come out of this but it would take a lot for Manchester United to still go ahead and win the league.
