Manchester United showed their clinical side to beat Everton 2-0 on home soil.

Penalties from Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford were enough to earn three points for the hosts although the Toffees had plenty of opportunities to get back into the game.

Here are all of the key talking points from the match at Old Trafford

Scoring has been a tough ask for Everton in recent months and it was more of the same in the opening stages at Old Trafford.

In the first 30 minutes, the Toffees were not short of opportunities, registering seven shots but only hitting the target twice.

More than once, Man Utd stopper Andre Onana was left rooted to the spot only to watch the ball fly past his post, much to the frustration of Sean Dyche on the sideline.

For all of Everton’s good work, United showed why they are significantly higher than them in the Premier League standings.

Alejandro Garnacho was full of twists and turns in the Theatre of Dreams and his lightning-quick feet baited the visitors into giving away two clumsy penalties.

These lapses in concentration could be the difference between relegation and survival for the Merseyside club and they will again feel like they have wasted an opportunity to put some important points on the board.
