A heartfelt moment at the Etihad as Manchester City fans rise in unison to honor Ricky Hatton, the legendary boxer and lifelong City supporter, who has passed away at 46. The stadium echoes with a prolonged, emotional applause, a true tribute to a local hero.

And we’re off in Manchester! Manchester City almost set the tone immediately, Erling Haaland finds space on the left edge of the box, fires a sizzling shot, but it drifts just wide of the far post. That was dangerously close to an opener.

Benjamin Sesko lets fly from outside the box, a curling left-footed effort aimed at the bottom left corner, but Donnarumma is equal to it, diving low to push it away. Manchester United nearly strikes first.

Patrick Dorgu nips the ball away from a far-too-casual Bernardo Silva, only for the City midfielder to foul the tricky United wing-back. The referee blows for a free-kick, and Manchester United have a chance to test Donnarumma.

After a frustrating season so far, Phil Foden sparks to life in true derby style. Jeremy Doku drifts into the inside-right channel, fakes past Shaw with a sublime bodyswerve, and though his first cross is blocked, the second finds Foden arriving perfectly.

The City midfielder rises and sends a crisp header across Bayindir into the bottom left corner. The Etihad erupts.

Manchester United win a free-kick on the left edge of City’s box. Bruno Fernandes whips in a teasing delivery, but no one manages to connect, and Donnarumma calmly claims it. Still 1-0 to City in this fiery derby.

Nico O'Reilly tries his luck from outside the box after a neat setup from Tijjani Reijnders, but his right-footed effort sails high and wide. That one had fans on the edge of their seats.

The whistle blows on an intense first half at the Etihad! Phil Foden’s header separates the sides so far, with both teams creating chances but failing to convert. City hold a slender lead as the players head to the tunnel, plenty still to come in this derby.

It just had to be him! Erling Haaland doubles City’s lead with trademark composure. Foden shifts play to Jeremy Doku, who slides a clever through ball into Haaland’s path. One glance, one delicate dink over Bayindir, and the Etihad explodes. City in control now at 2-0.

Bryan Mbeumo almost drags United back into it with a crisp volley inside the City box, the strike arrowing toward the corner. But Donnarumma stretches out that massive right hand to keep it out, superb stop from the Italian giant. City still 2-0 ahead.

City break at lightning speed, Bernardo Silva glides forward and threads a perfect through ball to Erling Haaland. The Norwegian stays calm, tucks a crisp left-footed finish into the bottom left corner, and just like that, City are tearing United apart. The Etihad erupts, 3-0 and cruising.

Bryan Mbeumo tries to spark a late fightback for United, curling a right-footed effort from a tight angle on the right, but it drifts wide. City’s defense holds firm, 3-0 still at the Etihad.

Casemiro gets a golden opportunity from close range after a whipped-in corner, but his right-footed shot from the right side of the six-yard box sails wide. United are running out of time to claw back in this derby, City still dominant at 3-0.

Four minutes of added time, and the tension in the away end is thick, Manchester United fans are looking glum. Even co-owner Sir Jim Ratcliffe isn’t hiding his disappointment. City sit comfortable at 3-0, cruising toward a dominant derby win.

That’s a wrap from the Etihad! What a derby it’s been, City cruising to a 3-0 win, Haaland on fire, and plenty of drama along the way. We’ll be back with more live blogs soon. Until then, goodbye and keep the football vibes alive.
