United are currently increasing the pressure more and more. However, they still don’t get through. Everton defend self-sacrificingly and are celebrated by the fans for every successful action.
59
14:48
Ralf Rangnick cannot be satisfied at all with the performance of his squad. The guests act completely harmless in the second half and are still waiting for the first shot on goal since the restart.
56
14:44
The home side really make a strong impression after the break. They are the much more dangerous team and cause the Red Devils a lot of problems.
54
14:43
An Everton corner from the left flies high in the middle. Maguire jumps under the ball and behind it Godfrey lurks. The 24-year-old nods the thing from almost six meters but a good distance over the box to the right.
51
14:38
Yellow card for Paul Pogba (Manchester United)
In the center circle, Pogba comes too late against Gordon and grabs the young Englishman from behind. But he sees the first warning of the game.
50
14:37
De Gea takes a quick kick to Lindelöf. The central defender serves Pogba and he leads out to Bruno Fernandes on the left. The playmaker plays a fantastic long pass into the box almost from the middle line to Rashford, who is on the move. At full speed, however, he doesn’t get his legs sorted properly and doesn’t catch the ball.
47
14:35
Mykolenko prevailed against two opponents almost at the left corner flag. The Ukrainian then brings the ball inwards almost flat from the baseline. De Gea is already there at the first post and grabs it safely.
46
14:33
Go on! Both teams return from the cabin unchanged in terms of personnel.

Mid-term conclusion:
Everton FC lead 1-0 against Manchester at half-time. It was a balanced game throughout the first half. However, the Red Devils had a playful advantage for a long time. Only the somewhat fortunate opening goal by Anthony Gordon, which was also the Blues’ first shot on goal, gave the Toffees offensive momentum. On the other hand, they consistently showed a committed performance on the defensive. After the change of sides, United will need to improve significantly to avoid defeat and remain in contention for fourth place. For Lampard and his team it’s all about maintaining the lead and getting a hugely important three-pointer in the relegation battle. So it should be exciting. See you soon!

60 seconds are added in the first section and there is another corner kick for the home team.

The last minutes of the first half are already running. Everton continue to defend well and now regularly provide relief.
39
14:11
United collects more ball possession again. However, not much occurs to the guests on the way forward. The last really dangerous shot was Rashford’s header in the 12th minute.

Fred limps off the pitch and is replaced by Paul Pogba.

De Gea prevents the 2-0! Pickford hits deep into the opponent’s half. Richarlison gets the ball and just tries it from a little over 20 meters. The shot is deflected again and descends dangerously in the direction of the left kink. De Gea reacts quickly and deflects the ball over the crossbar.
32
14:05
The hosts continue to put pressure on and are pushing for the second goal. Manchester are now in debt if they want to qualify for international business. That’s why the Red Devils are already imminent for the first change. Paul Pogba is ready.
29
14:03
The opening goal naturally caused a great deal of ecstasy in Goodison Park. For Anthony Gordon it is also the fourth goal of the current season.
27
13:57
Tooor for Everton FC, 1-0 by Anthony Gordon
Everton go ahead with the famous goal out of nowhere! Possession of the ball changes several times in midfield before Gordon initiates the action himself with a through ball onto the left wing. Richarlison swings the ball in low to Iwobi. The Nigerian only wants to hold the ball against Lindelöf. The ball then bounces perfectly from his foot to Gordon in the back. The 21-year-old finishes directly with the right inner instep. The shot is deflected by Maguire in the center in front of the goal, completely changes the trajectory and hits the bottom left. De Gea is completely powerless as he is on his way to the other corner.
25
13:57
The match is very divided at the moment. Both teams make a lot of minor mistakes. The flow of the game is completely gone.
22
13:54
Everton fought back into the game. However, they remain completely harmless in attack. De Gea didn’t even have to intervene.
19
13:53
Aaron Wan-Bissaka is clearly tasked with stopping Richarlison. However, the right-back is a little over-motivated. Just in the opposing half, the Englishman tackles the duel from behind and only catches his opponent. A yellow card would certainly be justified for the foul. Jonathan Moss leaves it with one last warning.
16
1:49 p.m
The Toffees are playing in a clear 4-1-4-1 formation today. Fabian Delph takes over the post on the six and Dominic Calvert-Lewin acts at the top. The striker is always supported by Richarlison, who moves in from the left.
14
13:46
At the moment, United are completely in control. Everton don’t defend badly, but they can’t get out of their own half at all.
12
13:44
Bruno Fernandes breaks through on the left and brings the ball in sharply. Rashford comes to the header from a central seven meters between two blues. However, Pickford is down quickly and scrapes the good try out of the left corner.
9
13:41
Bruno Fernandes sensitively lifts a stationary ball from the left halffield to the far post. Lindelöf doesn’t really get a header there. However, Everton did not get the ball cleared properly and the rebound landed half-left on the sixteen line at Rashford. The 24-year-old pulls straight away and aims for the left corner. Pickford is on the post and safely defends to the side.
8th
13:39
Nemanja Matić regularly drops between the two central defenders when building up the game and drives from behind. It’s working pretty well at the moment.
6
13:37
Manchester can establish themselves in the opposing half for the first time. In the end, however, Alex Telles runs out on the left wing in a duel with Allan with the ball.
3
13:34
The home team has more possession of the ball in the first few moments and is in control of what is happening. In addition, the fans of the toffees create a good atmosphere right from the start.

Here we go! Everton toast and play in blue and white. The guests countered in red jerseys with black shorts and socks.
13:26
Before the 1-1 draw in the first leg on matchday seven, the two traditional clubs were level on points and just one point behind the top of the table. The starting position of both clubs has changed significantly and has deteriorated enormously, especially for Everton. However, they are good at creating surprises at home and have won six of their seven league games at home at Goodison Park.
13:13
Manchester had a week’s rest since the 1-1 draw with Leicester City. Compared to the draw, Rangnick changes six times. Alex Telles, Lindelöf, Wan-Bissaka, Matić, Rashford and the recovered Cristiano Ronaldo are new in the starting XI. Diogo Dalot, Elanga and Pogba only sit on the bench. Shaw, Varane and McTominay are also injured.
13:05
Compared to the bankruptcy in the relegation thriller against Burnley, Frank Lampard makes four personnel changes. Séamus Coleman, Michael Keane, Allan and Fabian Delph replace Jonjoe Kenny, Jarrad Branthwaite, Mason Holgate and Abdoulaye Doucouré in the starting lineup.
12:55 p.m
Manchester United are currently seventh with 51 points. The gap to fourth place, which entitles them to participate in the Champions League and is the Red Devils’ clear goal, is only three points. Accordingly, everything is still possible in the end of the season. However, the shape leaves a little to be desired. In all competitions, the MUFC was only able to win one of the last six matches. There were three draws and two defeats. A win for Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. is a must against the Toffees, who are threatened with relegation.
12:48 p.m
Everton FC is still deep in the crisis. The change of coach to Frank Lampard hasn’t changed that. Under the 43-year-old’s leadership, the Toffees have won four games and lost eight in 12 competitive games. In the league there were only two successes. A 3-0 win over Leeds and a 1-0 win over Newcastle United. Last Wednesday there was another major setback. In a direct duel against Burnley, the Blues suffered a 3-2 defeat, despite a 2-1 lead in the meantime. As a result, the lead over the first relegation zone is only one point. Accordingly, there is a risk of slipping to 18th place if Everton does not get a three today.
12:28
Hello and welcome to matchday 32 of the Premier League. Everton FC welcomes Manchester United. Kick-off is at 1.30pm at Goodison Park.
