      The night is young
      Wembley Arena in north London is emptying out slowly but there’s plenty for us to discuss and break down.
      KSI will be speaking to us shortly. Let’s try and find out when we could see a Jake Paul fight.
      End goal
      It’s still Jake Paul. That’s still the showdown that KSI is working towards.
      That fight has to be round the corner from where we are right now – at Wembley Stadium with over 90,000 fans present.

      Final word
      On his next fight, KSI says: “Joe Fournier, Woodley, Slim, whoever it is – I’ll destroy.”
      And then he finishes by drinking a bottle of his Prime energy drink that’s selling like crazy on this side of the Atlantic.
      Next up
      Joe Fournier is on stage and wants a piece of KSI.
      The YouTuber wants it too it seems, saying: “I need to be tested.”
      KSI adds: “I more tests before I reach the final level… Jake f***ing Paul.”
      Stage ready
      “I said I wanted a KO in round one and here we are baby.
      “I want you guys to understand the levels. Look at what Swarmz did to Ryan Taylor.
      “Look at what Pineda did to that guy who I don’t know his name. And look at what I did to Temperrr. I’m on a different level.”
      Rich talk
      We’ll hear what KSI has got to say in a few seconds. He’s still in the ring and so is his opponent.
      Where does he go from here? What’s the next step up?
      Quick work
      KSI wins in the first round. FaZe didn’t know what hit him.
      An almighty roar went up with that KO and KSI celebrates with some press-ups in the middle of the ring.
      His fifth win in six fights.

      It’s over!
      FaZe isn’t getting up. KSI wins in the first round.
      He’s down!
      Down goes FaZe! Down goes FaZe!
      It’s time
      Michael Buffer screams to the 13,000 fans in London: “LET’S GET READY TO RUMBLE.”
      Final instructions given out by the referee and we’re about ready to go.
      Chants of “KSI, KSI, KSI” have broken out in here.
      What a roar
      A huge ovation for KSI as he makes his way to the ring.
      We’re going to have the national anthems of the USA and UK before the main event gets underway.
      What do I hear?
      I hear Michael Buffer.
      I see Michael Buffer.
      It’s main event time.
      Business partner
      Logan Paul is watching on from home.
      He and KSI have created the Prime drink that is flying off the shelves.

      Main event
      We’re almost ready for the main event of the evening.
      Final preparations are being made backstage.

      Slim says
      “The only way I stay at this weight class is if I fight KSI. Otherwise I’m going to shoot back down to 168lbs, my natural weight.”
      I’d tune in for that.
      Weight gain
      Slim wants to change weight class. He says he’s hitting people with some big shots but they’re not moving.
      He does look a very slight man in the ring next to someone like Zanetti.
      Good performance from both men.
      It’s unanimous
      Slim gets the decision but boy did he have to work hard.
      40-37, 39-37 and 39-38 on the scorecards.
      .Credit: PA
      Fight of the night
      Wow! What an absolute war!
      The two fighters hug after the end of the bout.
      Full credit to Zanetti to keep coming forward there and he had Slim in all sorts of trouble.
      I think Slim has done enough but he was hanging on at the end.
      Heart of a lion
      What heart from Zanetti! He keeps coming forward and has some luck with a couple shots after Slim drops his hands.
      Still Slim’s round I’d say but Zanetti is not out of this.
      One-way traffic
      Very impressive stuff from Slim.
      He’s picking Zanetti’s defence apart here and landing almost at will.
      Slim on top
      Zanetti doing a lot of talking in the ring and looking to come forward.
      But some quality shots from Slim rocked him a few times.
      Good round for the champion.
      Seconds out
      Right then, here we go for the co-main event.

      Walk of life
      Slim has just won the walk-on contest again.
      He came out to Backstreet Boys ‘I want it that way’.
      Last year he did Vanessa Carlton.
      Incredible confidence.
      Here we go
      It’s time for the chief support.
      Tom Zanetti is on his way to the ring.
      Chief support
      We’ll have the final undercard fight coming up very shortly.
      Slim Albaher is going up against Tom Zanetti before we see KSI take on FaZe Temperrr.

      by

      However, Fernandes levelled on the 80th minute, with VAR playing its part to award the goal after Rashford was initially deemed to be offside.
      And just moments later it was Rashford who poked his side into the lead to send Old Trafford into raptures.
      The goals were enough to see the Red Devils claim the three points in the Manchester derby.

      Wout’s the one
      Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag revealed why he signed Wout Weghorst on loan from Burnley.
      Weghorst, who watched the Manchester derby from the stands, cut his loan stint at Besiktas short and will spend the rest of the season at Old Trafford.
      Ten Hag said: “He is adding a type of striker we don’t have in this moment and I’ve known him for a long time and I’ve followed him through the leagues.”
      The Dutchman added: “He’s a goalscorer definitely but also a type who will work for the team, who is a really good pressing player in defending, so he can contribute [there] as well”

      Fer having a laugh
      Manchester United stars Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes struggled to hold back their smiles when asked about their controversial equaliser.
      Both were quizzed about the incident and let out little laughs, though Fernandes defended the decision to allow the goal.
      The playmaker said: “I was facing the goal, Marcus probably saw I was in a better position.
      “I didn’t know if either of us was offside. He didn’t make any influence on the defenders. It is what it is”
      Credit: Getty
      Casemiro stands out
      Manchester United star Casemiro stood out once more with a stunning performance at Old Trafford.
      The Brazil international ran United’s midfield against Manchester City.
      And as the heat map shows, the midfielder was everywhere.
      More below:

      Erik ten Hag speaks
      Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag, on the other hand, insists Bruno Fernandes’ goal correctly stood.
      Ten Hag told BT Sport: “The first half we played very well. We defended very well. We were proactive, with good opportunities on the break.
      “At half-time I was very happy with that, though we should have been 1-0 up. After that it changed, we had to sub [Anthony] Martial and that changed the game.
      “We were not proactive any more, and just before I wanted to change, they scored. But the spirit in the team is so huge.
      “The belief is there, that the game is 90 minutes and they can fight back. We are in a good direction but there is still a long way to go.
      “It’s a confusing moment for the opponent. But if you follow the rules, he [Rashford] didn’t touch the ball, he was not interfering and it’s a goal. Bruno came from the back, I could see that from the other side”
      Credit: AFP
      Pep Guardiola speaks
      Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola insists Manchester United’s equaliser shouldn’t have stood as Marcus Rashford was offside in the build-up.
      Guardiola told BT Sport: “We played really good. They are an incredible threat in their transitions, I congratulate the team. They run behind us and punished us in the transitions.
      “Rashford was offside, he distracted our keeper and distracted our central defenders. The rule is the rule but I know how we play.
      “The second half was really good. We missed a little bit up front, we were a little bit disconnected, but we made a fantastic game.
      “I don’t care about the Premier League or the Carabao Cup, we cannot win. We have won a lot so it is not a problem. Problem is we have performed like we have done. Today we performed. We focus on Spurs in a few days”
      Credit: AP
      Bruno Fernandes speaks
      Manchester United star Bruno Fernandes insists Marcus Rashford wasn’t involved in his controversial equaliser.
      Fernandes told BT Sport: “It’s always important to win the game. It doesn’t matter the opponent. All that matters is winning. Great effort from the team.
      “I was facing the goal, Marcus saw I was in a better position. I didn’t know if any of us were offside.
      “He [Rashford] doesn’t make any influence as there was no-one near him. The only closest [Manchester] City defender was the one closest to me”
      Credit: Getty
      Rule book guildeline
      Here is what the rules dictate about players getting implicated from an offside position:
      “A player in an offside position at the moment the ball is played or touched by a team-mate is only penalised on becoming involved in active play by:

      Interfering with play by playing or touching a ball passed or touched by a team-mate orinterfering with an opponent by:
      Preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or challenging an opponent for the ball orclearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent ormaking an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball

      City fans fuming
      Manchester City fans were left enraged after Manchester United were awarded their very controversial equaliser.
      With United on the ball, Casemiro delivered a pass into the path of Marcus Rashford, who knew he was offside and although he didn’t touch the ball on his run towards the goal Bruno Fernandes ran onto it and found the back of the net.
      City stars argued that goalkeeper Ederson had been pulled out from his goal line due to the England international’s positioning.
      Taking to Twitter, one fan wrote: “Rashford is clearly active in the attack and is offside so no idea how that’s a goal.”
      A second fan said: “Understand he doesn’t touch the ball but he literally positions himself to take the ball into his stride then just leaves it. Mental VAR decision.”
      A third slammed: “Whoever gave that should be sacked. 100% offside. Linesman always flag when an offside player then goes after the ball, even if a defender has it. Always. Shocking.”
      A fourth added: “Baffling that’s not offside.”
      A fifth user said: “If Rashford isn’t there, [Manuel] Akanji makes a challenge. Such a simple decision.”
      Another added: “How can you take five steps with (the) ball at your feet and NOT be interfering with play?!”

      Cech slams VAR
      Chelsea legend Petr Cech put VAR on full blast after Manchester United’s 2-1 win over Manchester City.
      United equalised with Bruno Fernandes’ controversial goal as City complained that Marcus Rashford, who was offside, got in the way.
      The linesman’s flag went up but VAR overruled that decision and Fernandes’ goal stood.
      However, Cech doesn’t seem to agree and claims officials “don’t understand the game”

      Updated Premier League table
      Manchester United have overtaken Newcastle in third place in the Premier League table after their victory over Manchester City.
      United are also just one point behind City, who are now trailing five points from table-toppers Arsenal.
      The Gunners also have a game in hand ahead of tomorrow’s North London derby against Tottenham.
      More below:

      Man Utd vs Man City stats
      Manchester City controlled 70 per cent of possession against Manchester United.
      City registered five shots but only one of them was on target, which shows how well United’s defence neutralised the Premier League’s leading goalscorer Erling Haaland.
      The Red Devils, on the other hand, produced eight shots, half of which were on target.
      More below:

      FT: Man Utd 2-1 Man City
      Manchester United came from behind and picked up a triumphant 2-1 win over Manchester City at Old Trafford.
      The two teams went through a dull first half but the second half was everything but a bore.
      City opened the scoring in the hour-mark when Kevin De Bruyne’s crisp cross from the right found the incoming Jack Grealish who beat David de Gea with a thunderous header.
      But United wouldn’t be denied and equalised on 78 minutes after a big VAR call.
      Casemiro delivered a beautiful ball towards Marcus Rashford who was offside.
      Rahsford knew that and left the ball for the incoming Bruno Fernandes who scored with a powerful long-range shot.
      The linesman’s flag went up but VAR overruled that decision despite City’s complaints that the England international got in the way of their defenders trying to mark Fernandes.
      The Red Devils completed their comeback only four minutes later.

      The playmaker gets to the ball and beats Ederson with a wonderful shot.
      City complain that Rashford participated by getting in the way and blocking their defenders from getting to Fernandes

      Goal!
      Fernandes’ goal stands!!!

      79 Man Utd 0-1 Man City
      No Goal
      United star Fernandes scores but the linesman’s flag goes up for offside
      78 Man Utd 0-1 Man City
      A very good game by Walker and Akanji so far.
      The two defenders are working very well on the right and find it easy to team up and shut down United’s attacks down that wing – Garnacho struggling so far
