Manchester United's Old Trafford was the scene of a surprise upset on Sunday as 10-man Everton secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over their hosts. The Toffees, led by manager David Moyes in his first game as a visiting manager to the iconic stadium, got off to a rocky start when midfielder Idrissa Gueye was sent off after striking a teammate.
Despite being down to 10 players, Everton continued to pose a threat to United's defense, with their lone goal coming from an uncharacteristic blunder by David de Gea in the Manchester United goal. The visitors' only shot on target came courtesy of a swift counter-attack, which resulted in Jordan Pickford's teammate, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, being allowed to score an easy header past De Gea.
United, meanwhile, struggled to create any clear-cut chances, with their usual attacking threats failing to make an impact. The home side's dominance was evident in the second half, but Everton held firm, earning Moyes a first Premier League win on his 18th attempt as a manager at Old Trafford.

... de gea has been having some issues lately and now he makes a mistake like this and it cost them the game 
. i think everton played well, especially with 10 men, but also their counter-attack was swift and effective 
. Moyes seems to have done a good job as a manager on the road, at least 
. can't say much about united's performance since they didn't create any clear chances 
! They must have had some masterminds behind the scenes who gave them that clever counter-attack strategy 
. And can you believe David de Gea made such a silly mistake? That goal was as easy to score as I make my breakfast cereal 
. United seemed so off on Sunday, like they were sleepwalking onto the pitch 
. Moyes must have said some magic words before that match because his team really showed their mettle 
I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. I knew Everton had the talent to cause some problems, especially with Gueye in their midfield, but not expecting them to come out on top like that 
. And Moyes, I gotta give him credit, he made some decent tactical changes at halftime and really got his team fired up 
. The thing is, United's attack just wasn't there today, they're gonna have to step up their game if they wanna compete with the top teams 
I mean, you'd think Manchester United would be a lock for three points, but nope! Everton was the underdog from start to finish and still managed to pull off the win 
. And can we talk about David de Gea? 
his mistake in the 1st half literally gift-wrapped the goal for Calvert-Lewin... I mean, what's going on with that guy's form lately?! 
And that goal by Calvert-Lewin was super easy, how did de Gea not see that one coming? 
United looked so clueless out there, cant believe they lost to Everton. Moyes must be relieved he finally got a win at Old Trafford 
, but I guess De Gea just had an off day... or two, or three 
. And that goal from Calvert-Lewin was super easy to score - it's not like United's defense is the best in the league or anything 
️. The Toffees showed some serious grit and determination, which always counts for something 
... I was walking along the beach and stumbled upon an old, rusty harmonica lying there 
... somehow, it started playing this weird, beautiful melody... anyway, back to football 
️... 10-man Everton? That's like me trying to cook dinner with one arm tied behind my back! 
... now if only I could get good enough at harmonica playing to play at a Premier League stadium 
! I'm literally cheering for underdogs all day, every day 
. David Moyes did an amazing job leading Everton to that win, especially considering they were down by 10 players 
United was all hype and then they just couldn't get the job done. Not like Everton didn't pose a threat but c'mon De Gea had a brain fart lol 
. And seriously, who sends off their best midfielder in the heat of the moment? Idrissa Gueye must've been really frustrated 
. On the other hand, Everton's goal was pretty stupid on David de Gea's part... I mean, how easy is that to score? 
.
at least calvert-lewin got on the end of that counter-attack and capitalized 
still stoked for moyes tho, first premier league win at old trafford is a big deal 
. And, honestly, De Gea's been having a bit of a rough patch lately... should've done better on that header 
. It's gonna be super interesting to see how United bounce back from this loss - can they get their game together and start winning consistently? 
. The Red Devils looked kinda lost out there, especially without that one guy who got sent off
