Manchester City secured a 1-0 win against Manchester United at Old Trafford in a tense derby on September 13, 2026. The match was marked by Phil Foden's red card within the first 25 minutes, forcing City to play with 10 men for most of the game. Despite being down a player, City's resilience and tactical discipline allowed them to maintain control, with United unable to capitalize on their numerical advantage.
