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

The lively match was at odds with the standout theme of Manchester ­United’s season so far – clean sheets but not enough goals of their own. On Sunday they took greater risks and were rewarded aplenty as they moved above their sloppy neighbours and into third in the table.
