Marcus Rashford scored a late winner as Manchester United came from behind to beat rivals Manchester City 2-1, a victory that moves them within a point of the champions in the Premier League standings.

City looked to be closing the gap on Premier League leaders, Arsenal after substitute Jack Grealish headed them in front from Kevin de Bruyne's cross, only for United to send their fans into raptures with a superb recovery.

Erik ten Hag's side drew level in contentious fashion with 12 minutes left as Bruno Fernandes scored despite the presence of Rashford in an offside position, City's protests that he had interfered with play ignored despite the flag going up.

Rashford was the central figure again four minutes later when he swept in substitute Alejandro Garnacho's cross to move United to within one point of City, who remain five points adrift of Arsenal.

In other results, Nottingham Forest beat Leicester City 2-0, Brighton defeated Liverpool 3-0, and Southhampton beat Everton 2-1.
