Manchester United’s new manager, Ruben Amorim, marked his first Premier League victory with an emphatic 4-0 triumph over Everton, showcasing a dominant performance at Old Trafford.
Amorim, who took over from Erik ten Hag in November after arriving from Sporting Lisbon, extended his unbeaten run to three matches. Following a 1-1 draw against Ipswich and a 3-2 Europa League win over Bodo/Glimt, his team delivered their most convincing display yet.
The match saw Marcus Rashford break the deadlock in the 34th minute with a deflected effort. Moments later, Joshua Zirkzee capitalized on a defensive error by Jarrad Branthwaite to double United’s lead. Rashford struck again just seconds into the second half, while Zirkzee completed the rout in the 64th minute, with both second-half goals brilliantly set up by Amad Diallo.
Despite the resounding victory, Amorim tempered expectations, reminding supporters that rebuilding the team into title contenders would take time and consistency. Meanwhile, outside Old Trafford, fans staged protests against ticket price hikes, underscoring the importance of sustained success to justify the increases.
With Amorim steering the team and implementing his vision, Manchester United appears to be finding renewed purpose, leaving fans optimistic about the road ahead.
