Manchester United's 18th visit to Old Trafford ended in defeat as a ten-man Everton stunned the hosts with a solitary goal, courtesy of Idrissa Gueye's late strike. The match marked David Moyes' first Premier League win as a visiting manager.
The Toffees started brightly but it was Manchester United who dominated possession and created most scoring chances in the opening stages. However, the visitors held firm until the 77th minute when Everton midfielder Idrissa Gueye was sent off for striking a teammate.
Trailing by man after Gueye's sending-off, Manchester United pushed hard for an equaliser but it wasn't to be. And then, in stoppage time, their fortunes changed for the better as Gueye netted from close range. The goal marked Everton's first Premier League win at Old Trafford and was a testament to their resilience.
The victory marked David Moyes' first Premier League win as a visiting manager after 18 attempts, while Idrissa Gueye also became the fourth player this season to be sent off in the Premier League.

i feel bad for david moyes tho, he's been around for so long and always gets screwed by refs & luck. but you gotta give credit to everton, they played a solid game and deserved that win 
idrissa guyeye's goal was wicked too, what a strike! 
anyway, glad we finally saw moyes get his first win as a manager, he's still got some tricks up his sleeve 
... Manchester United was all over them in the first half and thought they had it in the bag 
, but then things just fell apart for them. I feel bad for them, 'cause Gueye's red card changed the game completely 
. And to be honest, that late winner by him was a total nail-biter 
!
and can we talk about how much i love it when teams come back from behind like that? Everton just showed they're not to be messed with 
but that Everton team is like a dark horse, no one expected them to take down man utd at old Trafford 
they really showed some grit and determination, especially after gueye got sent off. 18 attempts is a long time, you feel bad for moyes but he won't be giving up anytime soon 
that goal from gueye though was like a dagger to the heart, i mean, who gets sent off and then scores the winner? 
. Everton came from nowhere, outplayed and outpossessed Manchester United, but still managed to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. It's like the old saying goes, "it's not about how hard you hit, but how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward"... or something like that 
. David Moyes got his first win as a visiting manager, but what does it really mean? Is it just a fleeting high, or is it a sign of something deeper? And Idrissa Gueye, eh... getting sent off in the 77th minute, that's like the universe saying "hey, you think you're on top of this? Think again!" 
, and i feel bad for the guy who got sent off on him though, he looked like he meant well 
. And what's with this David Moyes guy? He's like a dark horse, you know? I mean, who expects him to win as a visiting manager? Not me, that's for sure 
. Anyways, Everton's got to be feeling pretty good about themselves right now, and I'm happy for them... but still sad for United 
.
. Their midfield general Idrissa Gueye was absolutely phenomenal – dominating possession and then, BAM! He's sent off for a red card 
! It was like they knew they were going to win or something 
.
. On paper, they should have been the dominant force at Old Trafford, but their inability to capitalize on scoring chances has been their Achilles' heel 
. Gueye's sending-off was a turning point in the match, and it highlights how Manchester United's squad depth is still an issue 
. This win marks a significant milestone for him as a visiting manager, and it's clear that he's been able to get the best out of his players 
.
, like, yeah they won and all but Manchester United was dominating possession for most of the game 
. it's not like they didn't create scoring chances or whatever, just that Everton held firm till Gueye got sent off 
. and then suddenly it's a 10-man game and they still manage to win? 
. btw, why is Idrissa Gueye so reckless on the field? 
But you gotta respect his spirit, right? On a more serious note though, it's been a weird season so far with all these red cards and crazy comebacks. Manchester United must be kicking themselves for not taking that game more seriously when they had the chance. Still, congrats to Everton on their win!
