Injury Concern For Manchester United As Star Midfielder Mason Mount Gets Injured Against Man City

It was a hard fought and stunning victory for Manchester United against arch-rivals Manchester City in the Manchester Derby as Ruben Amorim's team made a stunning late comeback to take home the 2-1 win in their Premier League game. Man City took the lead against United but it was of no use as late goals from Bruno Fernandes and Amad Diallo managed to secure the win for Manchester United.
