If not for the final effort, Gabriel Jesus provided one of the most memorable pieces of skill in the Manchester derby, flooring Marcos Rojo with a series of step-overs.
Having left the Argentine in need of a hip replacement, Jesus fired straight at De Gea, but it was still a taster of what the Brazilian is capable of.

Football fans were quick to point out the similarity between Jesus' move and that of a certain Lionel Messi.
Recordemos el momento en que Lionel Andrés Messi Cuccittini destrozó la carrera de Boateng e hizo uno de los goles más preciosos de la historia. Y aún hay gente que se atreve a comparar CR7 con este dios. pic.twitter.com/iBMYQuNhIE
