United v city: Edin Dzeko celebrates
After just 45 seconds Edin Dzeko wipes the smile off Ferguson's face when he opens the scoring. City hared down the right flank, the ball was played into the penalty area after good interplay saving tackle from Rafael, when it looked like Silva was going to waltz the ball into the net. The ball was half-cleared to the edge of the penalty area, where Fernandinho clipped it to Nasri on the left side of the penalty area. Nasri rattled the upright with a low drive and Dzeko swept home from a couple of yards out for his ninth of the season Photograph: Paul Ellis/AFP/Getty Images
