Manchester City secured a comeback victory against Manchester United with a final score of 3-1 at the Etihad Stadium. Marcus Rashford put the visitors ahead before Phil Foden equalized with a stunning top-corner strike and later scored again, earning him the nickname ‘The Snιper’ due to his precision in front of goal. 

“When he comes in on his left foot, we call him ‘The Snιper’ because he likes to shoot! When he comes in on the left foot, he has the quality, calmness and composure to pick his spot. He took his first goal fantastically well. “

“The second one, coming in off the left side, you don’t really see Phil much in that position, but for him to find that corner as he did, shows his flexibility. He can play on both sides and is even trusted down the middle at times this season.

“It’s a big part of the responsibility that he’s taken on for the team and we lean on him and we need important players like him. They win you games.

“This season he’s been nothing short of first class. That’s the standard that he sets for himself, that’s the standard that we and the manager set for him and that’s the standard he needs to keep up now.”

Erling Haaland sealed the win with a late third goal. Kyle Walker, the captain of City, praised Foden’s exceptional performance, emphasizing his shooting ability and flexibility on the field. This win marked the first time City came from behind to ƅеаt Manchester United in a Premier League match and secured a league double over their гιᴠals. Walker highlighted the importance of halftime messages in maintaining the team’s focus and determination for a successful comeback.
