Marcus Rashford Picks Up Injury As Manchester United Beat Everton 2-0

Scott McTominay and Anthony Martial score as Manchester United beat Everton 2-0 at Old Trafford.

Victory takes Erik Ten Hag’s men up to third and opens up a six-point cushion over fifth-placed Tottenham.

But the three points came at a cost as Marcus Rashford hobbled off nine minutes from time, which could prove to be a major blow in the Red Devils’ quest for more silverware this season in the FA Cup and Europa League.

Only Jordan Pickford and some wayward United finishing prevented Everton from being on the end of hiding even before the half-time whistle as the Toffees failed to do their bid to beat the drop any good.

Sean Dyche’s men remain outside the relegation zone only thanks to goal difference and could fall into the bottom three should other results go against them on Saturday.
