Foden sees red as Mainoo impresses - Manchester derby ratings

, Manchester United reporter at Old Trafford and , Manchester City reporter at Old Trafford Phil Foden's first-half red card did not prevent Manchester City extending their perfect start to the season by beating Manchester United at Old Trafford . Here's how Simon Stone rated the United players and Shamoon Hafez scored City's. Manchester United Senne Lammens: Not as busy as he might have expected to be. Absolutely vital save from Fernandez to prevent City second. 7 Diogo Dalot: If only he had been able to control Bruno Fernandes' chipped pass into the penalty area he might have marked his 250th Manchester United appearance with a rare goal. Didn't look down the line to see he was clearly offside as United pressed just before half-time. Screwed shot wide after break. 4 Harry Maguire: Decent performance from veteran central defender and not far away from an equaliser with late header. Needless push on Enzo Fernandez in the box, for which he was booked. 6 Lisandro Martinez: Didn't dive in when Bruno Fernandes played a pass towards his own goal straight to Erling Haaland and won the ball from the Norwegian. Decent effort 7 Patrick Dorgu: Replaced Luke Shaw at left back in the starting 11 and did OK but doesn't have the same link with Rashford. Attempted block proved so crucial to City's opener. 6 Kobbie Mainoo: Another assured display in front of England boss Thomas Tuchel. Came close to giving his side the lead just after half-time and was home side's most effective midfielder. 8 Youri Tielemans (off 66, Sesko): Best performance of the season so far but yet to make the standout contribution expected. 7 Bryan Mbeumo: Probably United's most-effective attacking player. Header just wide before injury-time effort saved. 8 Bruno Fernandes: Fortunate to get away with no sanction at all over the incident that led to Foden's dismissal. Not one of his better efforts 6 Marcus Rashford (off 83, Zirkzee): Curling long-range free-kick against the post with Donnarumma beaten and shot into side-netting but still waiting for first goal since his return. 6 Matheus Cunha: Preferred to Benjamin Sesko in starting line-up and dragged early shot wide. Got involved on plenty of occasions, but again by dropping deep. Off target with a second-half opportunity. 7 Subs: Benjamin Sesko (on 66, Tielemans): Brought on to make an impact and tried his luck from distance soon afterwards. 6 Joshua Zirkzee (on 83, Rashford) 6 Subs not used: Darlow, Mazraoui, Mount, Yoro, Santos, Heaven, Lacey. Manchester City Gianluigi Donnarumma: Saw his post hit twice but made a good stop to deny Fernandes from range and a sensational one in injury-time from Mbeumo for the clean sheet. 8 Matheus Nunes: Overcome his nightmare performance here from April 2025. Showed some neat touches and generally shackled Rashford well. 7 Ruben Dias: The Portuguese has stepped up to take on the responsibility of being captain and was solid at the back once again. 7 Marc Guehi: Beginning to form an impressive partnership with his skipper and needed to be sturdy after City were reduced to 10 men. 7 Josko Gvardiol: Looks like left-back is where his position will be in this team. Handled Mbeumo brilliantly throughout and provided the cross for Haaland's goal. 8 Elliot Anderson: Busy and hard working in the centre of the park, as is now expected. Managed more touches of the ball than any City team-mate. 7 Enzo Fernandez: Given licence to roam and has fitted in seamlessly into midfield. The Argentine made an excellent challenge to thwart Tielemans and struck the post in the second half. 8 Antoine Semenyo: Has struggled in recent games and was wasteful once more. Place in the starting XI could come under pressure from Iliman Ndiaye. 5 Phil Foden: Total head loss in the cauldron of the derby. Given a straight red after kicking Fernandes in the stomach on 23 minutes and fortunate not to cost his side. 3 Rayan Cherki: Created very little after being move to the right. Not helped by a fellow attacking player getting himself sent off before being taken off at half-time. 5 Erling Haaland: On the periphery of the game in the first half, the fewest touches of any player. But came alive to open the scoring in with a cool, first-time finish in front of his own fans. 7 Subs: Iliman Ndiaye (on 45, Cherki): Caused some concern to the United backline with his direct running. 6 Nico O'Reilly (on 81, Fernandez) 6 Subs not used: Rulli, Kovacic, Reis, Bouaddi, Allan, Khusanov,
