Ella Toone scored a hat-trick as Manchester United recorded their first win at Manchester City, in a derby that was defined by an error-strewn display from the young City goalkeeper Khiara Keating.

The City head coach Gareth Taylor refused to place any individual blame on the 20-year-old, saying: “We win, lose and draw together as a team. The players in front of her need to do their jobs.” However, it was a night to forget for Keating and all of Taylor’s back four, as they repeatedly came unstuck when attempting to pass the ball out from the back and fell to their second successive league defeat.
