UK Back Pages: Aguero and Smalling Hit the Winners for City & United

After a night of Champions League action, it's no surprise to see Manchester United and Manchester City dominate the back pages.

Twenty-four hours earlier, Arsenal and Chelsea took a hammering after their defeats in the same competition, but it's a different story this time around thanks to the Red Devils and Citizens.

Sergio Aguero was the hero for Manuel Pellegrini's side with a late penalty, while Chris Smalling grabbed the all-important winner for Louis van Gaal's men after a delightful backheel from Juan Mata.

Both Premier League sides won 2-1 after opening-game defeats.

With the crunch Rugby World Cup clash between England and Australia getting ever closer, the Times opted to keep their focus on the oval ball.
