Transcript
00:00Manchester United have defeated Everton 4-0 in the Premier League to record Ruben Amorim's first league victory as Manchester United head coach.
00:12Joshua Xherxe and Marcus Rashford both bagged a brace in what ended up being a rather uncomfortable win for Manchester United here at Old Trafford.
00:22The truth be told though, the first half was maybe a lot closer than the 2-0 scoreline suggested at the break.
00:27Amorim had made six changes from the team that had just about defeated Bodo Glimpt in midweek.
00:33Everton though were the side who had the better opportunities early on.
00:36If not for some wasteful finishing from the team who were the jugglers' goal scorers in the Premier League,
00:40they could perhaps have found themselves ahead better with a couple of opportunities from the visiting side who were made to rue those missed opportunities.
00:48When United finally took the lead, Marcus Rashford, volleyed at goal from Bruno Fernandes' corner,
00:54he was deflected in by United transfer target Gerrard Granthwaite who scored his first goal perhaps in this trip to the end,
01:00although the goal wasn't officially accredited to Rashford.
01:03A few moments later, United would have a second.
01:05Granthwaite knocked a few more million pounds off his transfer price tag when he was robbed of the ball by Ahmad in his own half.
01:12The Ivorian gave the ball to Bruno Fernandes who raced at goal and squared it for Joshua Xherxe for only the second United goal since he signed in his summer.
01:20United led 2-0 at half-time.
01:22It was rather fortunate they had that lead given the manner of their first-half performance, but in the second half they made no amends.
01:29United were known for their quick start under Amireen and they had another goal, this time after just 19 seconds of the restart.
01:35Joshua Xherxe was some fantastic hold of play, released the ball to Ahmad who gave the ball then to Marcus Rashford, his second of the game.
01:44Things were going maybe a bit too well for United and in the space of two minutes there was some chaos.
01:49Romaino and Lissandro Martinez both picked up clumsy yellow cards which rules the duo both out of United's upcoming clash against Arsenal in midweek.
01:57So no Martinez, no Romaino, United go to the Emirates on Wednesday night. At least two changes there to Amireen's line-up.
02:03Things would then get back on track. United got a fourth, Ahmad Diallo won the ball halfway, raced towards the Everton goal, squared it for Joshua Xherxe who fired in.
02:13To give United their fourth, to give United three points and to give Ruben Amireen, that second win as United boss, his first win in the Premier League.
02:21Next up, as we've mentioned, Arsenal on Wednesday night. United will be without Martinez, they'll be without Menu.
02:27For now, they've won, they've scored four goals and they've got another three points.
02:31Full time from Old Trafford, Manchester United 4, Everton 0.
