Chris Smalling and Paul Pogba celebrate as Manchester United take the lead

This was the kind of moment that fans cherish for the rest of their lives! It was in April 2018, when Manchester United went to the Etihad Stadium to face their arch-rivals most importantly the league leaders, Manchester City.

Manchester City was the overwhelming favorite for this tie and they showed why but taking a 2-0 lead just half an hour into the fixture. Things looked difficult for the Red Devils as the old ghosts of their infamous 6-1 loss started to resurface.

It looked like United were staring at an ugly defeat but the likes Paul Pogba and Alexis had different plans. Mourinho's men came back into the second with an all-new approach and took on the Citizens with all everything they had. Pogba scored two quick goals to equalize before Chris Smalling scored the winner for them. United ensured that City did not clinch the title in front of their faces.
