Kevin De Bruyne says Manchester City 'fully deserved' their victory over Manchester United on Sunday.

Belgium star De Bruyne was in supreme form as he scored twice and assisted once in the 4-1 win at the Etihad.

"I think United played very differently than other occasions," he said. "They tried to press us and they played well in the first half.

"In the second half we found more opportunities. We did really well. We showed today we're a good team. I can't explain how it happens and why we always win there [Old Trafford] and have difficulties at home.

"We played really well and we fully deserved the three points."
