Manchester United stopped City's record-breaking series in England with 21 consecutive victories by winning the derby (2-0) on Sunday for Matchday 27.
With 11 points ahead, City has nothing to worry about yet, but it will not be able to beat Bayern's record (23 wins) for the 5 major European leagues.
Man United took advantage of a gross foul on Anthony Martial of Gabriel Jesus, returned to defend on the edge of his surface, from the 36th second of play, to take the advantage by Bruno Fernandes (1-0, 2nd).
The second goal was scored with a low cross shot by the side Luke Shaw, who did not hesitate to follow the counterattack into the opponent's area (2-0, 50 ').
