Garnacho acrobatics douse Everton's fire

Everton burned with a sense of injustice over the record 10-point deduction that has revived relegation fears just when it seemed Sean Dyche's side had left them behind.
Garnacho acrobatics douse Everton's fire

Manchester United performed with cool heads and cold intent instead, and savoured the biggest win of their season.

United's previous seven league wins this season had all been by a single-goal margin but here, against an Everton team reeling from the heaviest sporting sanction in Premier League history, a comfortable victory was built on character plus the clinical touch that their opponents lack.

A stupendous overhead kick from Alejandro Garnacho set Erik ten Hag's team on their way to an impressive win in which the 18-year-old Kobbie Mainoo excelled on his full debut.

A second-half penalty from Marcus Rashford proved pivotal in taking the game away from Everton. Anthony Martial provided the gloss with his first goal of the season late on.

Dyche's team had 24 attempts on goal compared to United's nine and adapted well to the unique circumstances that have enveloped the club. But finishing deserted them yet again at Goodison Park. Everton are five points from safety and cannot allow themselves to become demoralised by a punishment not of their players' making.

"The message to them is, we can cry and say it is unjust, and I think the whole of football thinks it is unjust," the Everton manager said. "Or we get on with it. We can't guarantee the appeal, only what we can do about it each week on the pitch."
