Jadon Sancho came back to haunt his former employers after bringing Manchester United level against Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium this afternoon.
United fell behind after just five minutes through Kevin De Bruyne's eighth Premier League goal of the season. But the visitors, who had recovered well, drew level through a lovely individual goal from Sancho with 22 minutes on the clock.
Cutting inside from the left flank, the England international, who was drafted back into the starting line-up after being benched against Watford last weekend, danced away from Kyle Walker and Rodri before bending a right-footed effort into the far bottom corner. It was a beautiful finish from the winger and one that United's strong start to the contest richly deserved.

It was the winger's third Premier League goal of the season and, undoubtedly, his best to date. Unsurprisingly, it immediately gauged a reaction on social media from United's supporters.
As well as Sancho's finish attracting plaudits, the fans also lauded Paul Pogba's excellent pass to pick him out. Below, MEN Sport has taken a close look at what some of them have had to say.
As you can see, United's supporters were massively impressed by the combination play between Pogba and Sancho, which resulted in the latter finding the back of the net. The Frenchman produced an outstanding pass to split the City defence and send his team-mate clear, before jinking his way past Walker and Rodri.
Unfortunately for United, City rediscovered their advantage just six minutes later through De Bruyne's second of the game. Phil Foden, who produced some terrific skill, saw his effort saved before the ball eventually landed at the feet of the City captain to double his tally for the afternoon.
