The winning run continues for Manchester United. After having the worst start of the season in the club’s history, Manchester United are back on the winning track and continuing their winning streak. Last night, the Red Devils cruised past Manchester United, where Alejandro Garnacho scored a potential goal of the season in the EPL.

It is Manchester United’s third successive win in the league. Moreover, the Red Devils have won more points than any other sides in the EPL as they won five of their last six matches. On the other hand, Everton are in a very dangerous zone following their 10-point deduction for breaching FFP Rules. The defeat against Manchester United saw the Toffees standing in the 19th position. 

As it happened

Everton welcomed Manchester United in a very crucial game last night at Goodison Park. The Red Devils came to face off the Toffees off the back of two successive wins in the league. But United’s boss Erik Ten Hag deployed his best possible XI against the home side. As Luke Shaw and Kobbie Mainoo returned from their respective injury, Erik Ten Hag made some changes in the starting XI. He set up the team formation with 4-2-3-1, where Anthony Martial played in the center of the attack with Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho in the two flanks. As for the Toffees, the manager played his team in a 4-4-1-1 formation against the Red Devils.

However, the match started with Manchester United dominating the home side at Goodison Park. The magical moment came in just four minutes of the game when Alejandro Garnacho scored an unbelievable goal with a bicycle shot. His stunning goal has already been considered the potential goal of the season. 

After that, both sides created several chances but failed to find the net in the first half. Everton, however, could have equalized, but Man United’s goalkeeper Andre Onana was brilliant last night and didn’t concede a goal.

Coming from the break, the Red Devils played more aggressive football than the first half. Bruno Fernandes, Rashford, and Martial were extremely threatening when they got the ball. In the 53rd minute, Anthony Martial earned a penalty kick for Manchester United. Captain Bruno Fernandes gave the ball to Marcus Rashford to take the spot kick, and Rashford didn’t miss the chance. As a result, the Red Devils took a 2-goal lead in 53 minutes.

However, Everton fought for their lives to return a goal. But Man United’s defense was rock solid. Furthermore, the Red Devils got another goal when Anthony Martial found the net with a beautiful finish. In the 75th minute, Martial beat Everton’s keeper Pickford and made the scoreline 3-0. Both sides couldn’t score more goals in the remaining minutes, resulting in Manchester United winning the match by a comfortable 3-0 margin at Goodison Park.
