Manchester United entertained Everton at Old Trafford earlier today as they hoped to secure all three points at home in the Premier League. The Red Devils made a decent start to the game and got their noses ahead in the 36th minute when Scott McTominay found the back of the net for the home side. Man United went into the half-time break 1-0 up on the scoreline.
Anthony Martial doubled his team’s advantage in the 71st minute as Erik ten Haag’s men cruised to an impressive 2-0 win in front of their home fans.
Let’s take a look at how each Manchester United player fared during the match against the Toffees.
GK: David de Gea – 6.5/10
The Spanish keeper made one solid save at the back and earned an easy clean sheet at Old Trafford.
RB: Aaron Wan-Bissaka – 8/10
He didn’t do much wrong at the back and had a lively game going forward as well.
CB: Harry Maguire – 7/10
The English defender cleared the danger when needed and did enough work defensively to keep a clean sheet today.
CB: Lisandro Martinez – 7/10
Martinez did his fair share of defending inside his half and was a threat at the other end of the field.
LB: Tyrell Malacia – 8/10
He was a positive influence at both ends of the pitch and was accurate with his passing.
CM: Scott McTominay – 8.5/10
McTominay anchored the midfield well and caused a lot of problems for the opposition defenders. He scored the opening goal in the 36th minute and deserves to be named the man of the match.

Antony was a constant menace down the right flank but has got nothing to show for his efforts.
CAM: Marcel Sabitzer – 6.5/10
He caused some headaches for the Everton defenders but struggled to take any of his chances.
LW: Jadon Sancho – 8/10
Sancho was excellent with his link-up play from the left wing and has got an assist to show for his efforts.
ST: Marcus Rashford – 7.5/10
He was a real threat inside the Everton penalty box and ended the game with an assist to his name.
Substitutes:
ST: Anthony Martial – 7/10
The French talent came off the bench and scored Man United’s second goal.
CM: Fred – 6/10
He struggled to influence the game.
