Outstanding performance
Everton•MidfielderManchester United looked to have done the hard work through Bryan Mbeumo's clinical strike a minute into the second half, a rare moment of quality in a game United controlled through possession (55%) and passing (524 passes at 87% accuracy) but rarely turned into clear-cut chances, managing just 3 shots on target all game. Everton, by contrast, were far more direct and dangerous - 18 shots, 6 on target, and 63 dangerous attacks to United's 32 - and that pressure eventually told when Tyrique George equalized in the 83rd minute after Jarrad Branthwaite's header was saved moments earlier. Sesko's headed goal looked to have snatched it for United with two minutes left, capping a whirlwind late cameo, but Ainsley Maitland-Niles, himself just on as a substitute, popped up in stoppage time to rescue a point for the Toffees. The result leaves both sides with plenty to ponder - United will be frustrated at squandering a late lead again, while Everton can take heart from a spirited fightback built on a much higher work rate and territorial dominance than the scoreline first suggested.
