Play by play

Well, what a game that was. It had everything, including a rousing second half comeback from City. Aguero was superb all afternoon and played the lone striker role superbly. United should have shut the game down but seemed too keen to pile on the goals. Excellent first half from Fergie's men though. Don't forget to stay with us for the draw at 5.40pm UK time.
