Everton Stuns Manchester United 1–0 at Old Trafford After Early Red Card
Everton stunned Manchester United with a hard-fought 1–0 victory at Old Trafford on Sunday, securing their first Premier League win at the ground in more than a decade.
The match turned sharply in Everton’s favour after an early red card reduced the visitors to 10 men, but it was Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall who produced the game’s decisive moment. The midfielder unleashed a spectacular 25-yard curling strike in the 29th minute, beating André Onana and silencing the home crowd.
Despite being a man down, Everton delivered a disciplined defensive performance for the remainder of the match. Jordan Pickford made several crucial saves to preserve the lead, while the back line absorbed sustained pressure from United.
The victory lifted Everton to 11th place on 18 points, level with Liverpool but ahead on goal difference, while dealing a blow to Manchester United’s recent momentum.
Fans debated the controversial red card, with many questioning whether the decision was too harsh, though most agreed that Dewsbury-Hall’s brilliant finish was worthy of winning any game.
