Rio Ferdinand and Gary Lineker react to Manchester derby result

Manchester United secured a league double over their derby rivals after beating Manchester City 2-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday afternoon.

Anthony Martial scored in the first half, and Scott McTominay added another in the injury time to earn the Red Devils all three points in the Premier League.

After the match, Gary Lineker and Rio Ferdinand took to social networking site Twitter to express their reactions. Lineker described as a ‘very good performance’ from United, suggesting they’re definitely making ‘significant progress’ under Ole Gunnar Solksjaer.

Bruno Fernandes was brilliant once again, while another January signing Odion Ighalo made another positive impact when he came on.
