Kevin De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez shone for Manchester City
It goes without saying but perfect 10's go to De Bruyne and Mahrez as they propelled MCFC to the three points here. De Bruyne was superb in the first half and opened the scoring with a great finish. After Jadon Sancho equalized 1-1, KDB put City back ahead with another great shot.
As for Mahrez, his two goals came in the second half, giving Man City a 3-1 lead and then finishing 4-1. Mahrez's first goal came from a corner kick as he fired an unreal delivery past a diving David De Gea. His second goal was also a rocket.
Don't forget Phil Foden because he gets a nine for his performance. The speedy winger stormed the pitch consistently and regularly caused problems for United's defence. Foden continued his unreal season.
Next up for Man City next week is a Champions League showdown against Sporting Lisbon. MCFC have a 5-0 aggregate advantage ahead of this meeting as they basically completed a trip to the Quarterfinals. Fans are hoping Pep Guardiola's men can take home both the Champions League and EPL crowns this spring.
