Manchester Utd 4-4 Everton


Man United 4-4 Everton
Everton upset United’s Party.

Manchester United will not be able to win the title at City next Monday after being held to a 4-4 draw with Everton after being 4-2 up. Everton took the lead through Nikica Jelavic on the 33rd minute with a great header, which gave David De Gea absolute no chance and set Everton on their way.

Manchester United were not going to in at half time losing so they drew level through Wayne Rooney on the 41st minute with a header that got the better of Toffies keeper and former United man Tim Howard.

In the second half United came out looking the better side and had a few more chances before taking the lead for the first time in the game when Danny Welbeck curled a great shot past Howard and into the top corner left him with no chance.

After the 2nd goal was scored the crowed lifted and United began to take control of the game and soon they made it 3-1 when Welbeck provided the pass for Nani who smashed home number 3 for United.

Just when we all thought United had the game wrapped up Everton came back with goal out of nothing when Tony Hibbert crossed the ball and Fellani was there to slam the ball home with a drive from outside the box low into right hand corner leaving David De Gea with no chance
3-2.

Not happy about the goal United bounced right back by going up the other end and scoring again through Wayne Rooney his second of the game and United’s 4th it was a low drive from deep inside the Everton Box after the pass from Danny Welbeck.

At this stage of the game with just 8 minutes left you thought that Everton were down and out but no, with just 8 left of the clock they gave themselves a life line as Phil Neville put the ball across and Jelavic put the ball into the back of the net 4-3 game on with 8 minutes left.

Then the impossible happened Everton leveled through Steven Pienaar deep in side the box and in to the bottom left hand corner after the ball was played to him by Fellani.

Everton leave old Trafford with a point after one of the games of the season Sir Alex later said, “we can never do that again”, and they cant if they want to win the league the pressure grows on the Manchester derby Next Monday.

FT REPORT: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-1 TOTTENHAM

HARRY KANE broke Crystal Palace hearts as he headed home an 88th minute winner at Selhurst Park.  It was Kane's 35th goal of the season and his 150th career club goal, the goal equalled his record of goals for last season as he once again looks on course for another stunning season in front of goal. His header broke the hearts of Palace who were denied a precious point in the battle against relegation. One man who will be thanking Kane for scoring will be Spurs right back Serge Aurier who had missed an open goal a few minutes prior to Kane's goal. The result saw Spurs go above Chelsea into the top four on goal difference before the Blues's trip to Manchester United. The defeat for Palace see's them remain 17th in the table outside the drop zone on goal difference. They also play Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool in three of their next four fixtures. It was a tight and tense affair in the first half and Spurs were unlucky to be denied two penalties....
