Erling Haaland scored the only goal of the match as 10-man Manchester City secured a 1-nil victory over Manchester United in the latest Manchester derby.

City were reduced to 10 men after midfielder Phil Foden was shown a straight red card for kicking out at United captain Bruno Fernandes.

United dominated after the red card and hit the post twice, but Haaland struck in the 60th minute.

The goal was initially ruled offside before a lengthy VAR review overturned the decision.

The victory maintains Manchester City's perfect start to the Premier League season under new manager Enzo Maresca.

City are now level on points with Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table, while Manchester United have dropped points in three of their last four league matches and remain 13th in the table.

Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion thrashed Coventry City 5-nil in a dominant display.

Tomorrow, Leeds United will host Newcastle United at 7am Fiji time.
