Last season, "Manchester City" team surpassed "Manchester United" and firmly stood at the top of the English Premier League. The intriguing end of the season, spiced up by the battle of giants, captivated many fans. On Monday these giants will meet again, but the significance of the match is not as important as it was last year. Even a victory for Roberto Mancini's team would not allow them to come closer to Sir Alex Ferguson's squad. "Manchester United" team, who are 15 points ahead of their pursuers, is simply waiting for the rewards, while "Manchester City", who were champions last year, have already buried their hopes of defending the title. "Manchester City" team only remembers the dramatic victory from last season and now tries to defend the second place, which is being pursued by the teams of London's "Chelsea" and "Tottenham Hotspur". "Last year it had more significance. Now the situation is completely different," said Vincent Kompany, who scored the goal that secured victory for "Manchester City" team 12 months ago. A month ago, it was suggested that "Manchester United" could win three trophies this season, but it will not happen. "Red Devils" fell in the Champions League against Real Madrid and were eliminated. They can no longer win the FA Cup Trophy - a loss to Chelsea ended their run in the tournament. However, the one remaining trophy symbolizes the greatest success in England. And it would take an incredibly powerful decline for "Manchester United" not to win it. "We're pleased with our position and want to finish the season here," said "Manchester United" goalkeeper David De Gea, who has kept a "clean sheet" in the Premier League for six consecutive matches. The English Premier League match between "Manchester United" and "Manchester City" teams at Old Trafford will take place on Monday at 22:00 Lithuanian time.
