WATCH: Kevin De Bruyne scores smart goal to put City ahead in the Manchester Derby

KEVIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNN

The Manchester Derby started with plenty of intensity at Old Trafford, with both teams working hard. City had possession and looked to create chances, but United defended well and the Citizens couldn't find any spaces.

Until Kevin De Bruyne anticipated Daley Blind and found acres of space to score City's first goal in the Derby just 15 minutes into the game:

This is such a smart goal by a player who's always alert. De Bruyne is fantastic, and while this goal isn't exactly a Guardiola goal, it is still a goal and it's a huge one so early in the game.

WELL DONE, KEV!
