Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney has admitted that it is a "great feeling" to have ended Manchester City's unbeaten home record in Sunday's derby.
An injury-time free kick from Robin van Persie gave United 3-2 victory and inflicted a first home league defeat on City for the first time since October 2010.
"It's a great day for us, to go six points clear and beat our greatest rivals, especially after what happened last year," Rooney told Sky Sports News.
"We're going to celebrate. They've had a great record here and to spoil that is a great feeling."
Rooney's brace at the Etihad Stadium was cancelled out by the hosts before Van Persie struck late to seal the win.
