Everton Stuns Man Utd After Red Card Farce
24 Nov
Summary
- Everton played with 10 men after a bizarre red card for a teammate push.
- Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scored the decisive goal for Everton.
- Manchester United missed a chance to climb into the top five.
Manchester United's promising unbeaten run was abruptly halted as Everton achieved a rare victory at Old Trafford, even after suffering a bizarre early red card. The visitors were forced to play with 10 men after just 13 minutes when Idrissa Gueye was dismissed for pushing teammate Michael Keane.
This unusual incident, however, failed to ignite Manchester United. Instead, Everton, demonstrating remarkable cohesion, took the lead in the first half through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's well-taken goal. The home side appeared disjointed and struggled to create clear-cut chances against an organized Everton defense, despite multiple tactical changes.
The defeat leaves Manchester United in 10th place in the Premier League, missing a chance to advance into the top five. Everton, now level on points, occupies a position just behind them. The match highlighted Manchester United's offensive struggles and lack of depth, particularly in attack.
