O’Hare netted twice during yesterday’s win over United, as his partnership with Viktor Gyokeres proved too hot for the visitors to handle.
Mark Robins’ side beat Championship leaders Fulham by the same scoreline earlier this season.

“It could have been five, six or seven,” O’Hare continued. “But we will take four and move on. It was a fun game to play in. The lads are buzzing and the fans were right behind us.”
Dennis Lawrence took charge of City’s operations in the dugout after Mark Robins, Heckingbottom’s counterpart, was forced to miss the game following a positive Covid-19 test.
O’Hare, who played alongside former United midfielder Regan Slater during a spell on loan at Carlisle earlier in his career, helped City record their biggest winning margin over Heckingbottom’s employers since 1991.
