At 4-0 up...(City) stopped tearing at United, stopped swarming over them in midfield, stopped bullying them back into their own half and settled.
Even then, it took a wondrous free-kick from Wayne Rooney to put United on the scoresheet.
More telling was the appearance of his manager, David Moyes — or the lack of it. He barely ventured off the bench in the second-half.
It was as if he had been rocked back in his seat, shocked, stunned, rendered mute in disbelief.
In this way, he mirrored his team.
United were simply repelled by their rivals, shut up, dismissed, seen off. They pushed them deep, chased and harried them up the field.
