Man United 4 City 3

United free transfer striker Michael Owen snatched an incredible victory deep into stoppage time in one of the most memorable derbies of all time.

Wayne Rooney scored early for United but Ben Foster gifted City an equaliser through Gareth Barry. Darren Fletcher and Craig Bellamy then traded goals to take the score up to 3-3 before substitute Owen's remarkable strike.

In the fifth minute of stoppage-time, when England’s fourth highest scorer had been shunted so far down the list of talking points he was not even worth a mention, the substitute strode onto Ryan Giggs’ precise pass, looked up and calmly found the bottom right corner.

Foster (4): Should have made a simple clearance instead of dribbling back to penalty area for Tevex to snatch it. Could have covered his near post better for 3rd city's goal.

O'Shea (5.5): Was a tad too slow for Bellamy.

Ferdinand (5): Looked rusty, should not have rushed him to play in the game.

Vidic (6.5): An average performance.

Evra (7): Most of the attacks comes from him and Giggs on the left.

Park (6): Shooting needs improvement, effort was ok.

Fletcher (8.5): Got better as the game goes on. Two good headed goals.

Anderson (6.5): Completely missing in first half, only woke up in 2nd half.

Giggs (9): How Giggs will be missed when he retires.

Rooney (7): Well taken goal, but did not do much after that.

Berbatov (7): Would have scored on a luckier day, good technique.

Subs:

Valencia (6.5): (sub Park 62) Strong on the ball and make decent crosses.

Owen (7.5): (sub Berbatov 77) Did well to stay on side and calm goal.

Carrick (5.5): (sub Anderson 90) Cameo.
