Manchester derby: Daley Blind savaged after blunders see City race into a two-goal lead
Kevin De Bruyne and Kelechi Iheanacho strike as United's defence crumbles but Zlatan Ibrahimovic pulls one back
DALEY BLIND'S shocking Manchester derby performance saw City race into a two-goal lead.
Kevin De Bruyne and Kelechi Iheanacho capitalised on defensive blunders from the Dutchman to get their side off to a flier.
First KDB raced onto Iheanacho's flick-on after Eric Bailly failed to compete for a long ball and Daley Blind failed to react.
That left the Belgian clear to calmly beat David De Gea who was left stranded on the edge of his area.
City started the better side and were good value for their lead as Jose Mourinho's surprise line-up failed to pay dividends.
Last year's derby hero Marcus Rashford - left on the bench despite a midweek hat-trick for the England Under-21s - was seen warming up immediately after the strike.
But before he could take to the field his side were further behind as De Bruyne's shot crashed off the post and Iheanacho - played onside by daydreaming Blind - put in another.
Guardiola, however, was given a reality check as Zlatan Ibrahimovic pounced on an error from Joe Hart's replacement Claudio Bravo to pull one abck.
