Manchester United vs Everton LIVE: Result and final score after Rashford and Zirkzee hit doubles
Relive all the action as Ruben Amorim secures his first Premier League win in charge at Old Trafford
Manchester United won their first Premier League game under new boss Ruben Amorim after sweeping past Everton 4-0 at Old Trafford.
After a draw at Ipswich and a comeback win in the Europa League against Bodo/Glimt, United started quickly against the Toffees and race into the lead.
Marcus Rashford crashed home the opener from a corner from Bruno Fernandes’ delivery.
And the Red Devils doubled their lead, showcasing Amorim’s fast-paced style and an emphasis on pressing through Amad Diallo and Fernandes to claim possession deep in the Everton half before Joshua Zirkzee converted.
And Sean Dyche’s side were put away in the second half after Rashford and Zirkzee doubled their tallies to complete a comfortable afternoon for the Red Devils. Relive all the action from Old Trafford below:
