On a chilly December evening in 2019, Manchester United's Marcus Rashford opened the scoring in the 23rd minute, marking the beginning of a thrilling derby win over Manchester City.
The victory, which came after a breathless opening from the Red Devils, saw Rashford net his 13th goal in his last 14 appearances for club and country.
VAR intervened to award a penalty after Rashford was fouled in the box by Bernardo Silva, with the England striker converting the spot kick to give United the lead.
Just six minutes later, Anthony Martial doubled United's advantage with a smart finish to beat City's Brazilian keeper Ederson at his near post.
Although Nicolas Otamendi pulled one back for City late on, United's victory was sealed, reviving their hopes of qualifying for the top four in the Premier League.
The win has also left Manchester City 14 points adrift of Liverpool at the top of the table, a significant gap that will be difficult to bridge.
