Derby Day - Manchester City clash with Manchester United at Old Trafford for the bragging rights of the city.
Overview
Derby day at Old Trafford was one of the fiercest derbies in the footballing calendar. Manchester United (in the darks shirts) were no doubt hoping to rekindle a stuttering league season with a win against their neighbouring rivals, Manchester City. But, it would be City's day. Although only one of their goals has been captured, they ran out 3-1 winners and extended their winning streak to five matches. The cheers from the crowd seem it bit half-hearted - United supporters?
The 1920s hadn't been good to Manchester United and the 1929-30 season was no exception. City hadn't fared much better, though they were riding a four-match winning streak when they joined this game. City pushed on to end up third in the league, with United way back at 17th.
