The scoreline remained unchanged until the 50^th minute when Fernandes doubled Everton’s lead with a top corner strike. John O’Shea managed to half the lead after a defensive error and United then drew level courtesy of an embarrassing own goal by Phil Neville. Wayne Rooney made it 3-2 before Chris Eagles secured the points for the league leaders sealing the win at 4-2.
