incidents
Match of the thirtieth day of the Premier League played at Old Trafford.
Everything seemed in favor of Manchester United; a comfortable victory against Everton, the return of the Danish Christian Eriksen, injured since Januaryand the feeling of having recovered his level of play just before the return of European competition, until after a hospitalization Rashford he reached out to the adductor and asked for the change.
The striker was clear that he could not continue and a chill ran through Old Trafford, because Rashford, author of eleven goals after returning from the World Cup, He is the great star of United since Ronaldo’s departure and the fittest player in the Premier.
Until then everything was smiling on the team led by Dutchman Erik ten Hag, who he did not find excessive resistance in his rival.
Without any filter from Everton in the midfield, United enjoyed a highway towards the rival area, because it was enough for them to constantly look for the back of the maladjusted defense of the ‘Toffes’ to create danger. Twenty-two shots in the initial period, more than ever since they were counted in the Premier, account for the siege.
Only in the first half hour, between Rashford and Antony They stood up half a dozen times against Jordan Pickford and only the success of the English international goalkeeper and the post, who repelled a shot from the Brazilian -whose rebound was wasted at an empty goal by Aaron Wan-Bissaka (m.11)-, They prevented the match from being resolved before the break.
Nor did Everton take advantage of his only arrival. Ellis Simms, with space and time inside the area, crossed the ball excessively (m.19) and that was where all the danger from Sean Dyche’s men ended, whom they He didn’t even give them to protect his goal.
The downpour, despite Pickford’s umbrella, ended up sinking in thanks to the state of grace of Scotsman Scott McTominay -the executioner of Spain at the premiere of De La Fuente- who translated into a goal a perfect assist from Jadon Sancho (m.36).

Confident in his superiority, and perhaps thinking about the Sánchez Pizjuán game, The intensity of Ten Hag’s team dropped significantly in the second halfwhich did not prevent Pickford from working, nor did an error in the control of veteran Seamus Coleman offer Rashford the opportunity to leave Anthony Martial alone, so that the Frenchman, a former Sevilla player, scored in the 71st minute against his favorite victim (12 goals in 16 games against the ‘Toffes’).
Everything was ready for the win, until Rashford’s injury in the 78th minute changed the landscape. He Everton continued without arguments to worry and United was more aware of possible news about their star.
