Man United, Man City want Premier League to end quickly – Scholes on 0-0 draw
Manchester United legend, Paul Scholes, has noted that neither the Red Devils nor Manchester City played well enough to win their Premier League game on Sunday.
The Manchester derby, the second of the season in the Premier League, ended in a 0-0 draw at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The game did not come with much excitement in the buildup, as both teams are currently going through a rough patch.
The first half was very much tentative, as both sides recorded one shot on target each.
The second half offered a brighter spark, but the overall match was far from what one expects from a derby of such magnitude.
Scholes, who has witnessed multiple derbies as a player and a pundit, was not impressed with what he beheld at Old Trafford on Sunday.
He highlighted the lack of intensity displayed throughout the 90 minutes. The legendary midfielder said:
“Neither side did anywhere near enough to win the game. Manchester City had nice possession, Manchester United on the counter-attack had half-chances.
“Other than that, it feels like both sides need the Premier League to end pretty quickly.”
Manchester United remain in 13th position, while Manchester City maintained their fifth position on the Premier League table.
