VIDEO: Aguero's strike gives Manchester City a deserved lead over United

Manchester City has broken the deadlock at the Eithad Stadium against 10-man Manchester United.

After a trio of cries for a penalty kick were denied by the match referee, City's relentless pressure finally paid off. Sergio Aguero buried his shot into the United net to give the hosts a 1-0 lead. 

A beautiful threw-ball from Yaya Toure found the foot of Gael Clichy. The defender cut the ball back into the middle of the United box to an open Aguero for the powerful finish past David de Gea.
