United showing composure

They have been on the ball more in these opening minutes of the second half in comparison to their first-half performance.

 

Looks like the two goals have galvanized the side after the break.

Second half under way

We are back at Wembley for the second act.

 

United will look to preserve their lead, while City will be intent on equalizing at the very least to take this match the distance.

 

Guardiola has responded with two changes, with Jeremy Doku and Manuel Akanji coming on for Kovacic and Ake.

 

United will kick things off this time around.

Half-time: Manchester City 0-2 Manchester United

The referee blows the whistle as the teams walk off at the interval with contrasting emotions.

 

City have looked the stronger side, but their finishing in the final third leaves a lot to be desired.

 

United, on the other hand, have shown that patience and the ability to convert on counterattacking opportunities can make all the difference.

 

Guardiola will have strong words for his side as they are still 45 minutes away from realising their double aspirations.

Mainoo shown yellow card

For a rather egregious tackle from behind on De Bruyne, Mainoo goes into the book.

 

It provides a free kick opportunity from about 40 metres out, just left of centre.

 

De Bruyne sends in a ball towards the far post, but it is collected by Onana.

 

Meanwhile, we will have just two minutes of added time.

Ruthless United

With the interval approaching, United have demonstrated how clinical finishing will always trump possession-based tactics.

 

Guardiola’s side have a mountain to climb now if they are to complete their vision of achieving the double for an unprecedented second time in a row.

GOAL! Manchester City 0-2 Manchester United

Mainoo extends the lead to 2-0 as City are being taken apart!

 

It all begins with Mainoo sending a cross-field ball to Garnacho on the wide right.

 

Garnacho passes it to Fernandes in the middle, with Mainoo setting off down the left flank.

 

Fernandes spots this and executes a lovely pass to the incoming Mainoo.

 

Mainoo shoots it on the run to the right of Ortega, who fails to stop the chance.

 

United are truly on top despite being suffocated by City’s possession game.

Rashford goal ruled offside

Garnacho receives a deep ball from Varane on the right flank.

 

It looks like when he received it he was a touch offside, but play is allowed to continue.

 

He spots Rashford in the central area of the box and lays it off to him.

 

The England striker finishes to the right of Ortega, but the linesman has his flag up.

 

There is a quick VAR check, but the original decision stands.

City on the hunt

With all the possession the Cityzens have enjoyed, they have had just the one clear attempt at goal.

 

That is a credit to the well-organised United backline.

Wembley bursts into life

With that United goal very much against the run of play, the stadium is once again in good form.

 

Chants of “United” ring around the ground.

 

City look even more intent to try and find an equaliser before the half is out.
