Unprecedented defeat for Man Utd against 10 men

Manchester United went into the game against Everton unbeaten in five matches, but that mini-revival came to a juddering halt as they set an unwanted new record.

It is the first time the Red Devils have lost a Premier League home game despite their opponents having a player sent off. United had won 36 and drawn 10 of 46 previous such fixtures.

It is all the more damning that Idrissa Gueye's red card came so early in the match – Ruben Amorim's side had an extra man for 77 minutes but failed to make it count.

But credit is also due to the Merseysiders for making light of their numerical disadvantage. It is the first time they have won a top-flight game after having a player dismissed in the opening 45 minutes since August 2006.

David Moyes was also the manager for that game, a 2-0 victory at Tottenham in which Kevin Kilbane was given his marching orders in the 33rd minute.
