Manchester United Collapse Against 10-Man Everton

Amorim’s Anniversary Turns Into a Nightmare at Old Trafford

A year after Ruben Amorim managed his first Manchester United match, his new United team produced a shocking collapse. They lost at home to 10-man Everton, ending their five-game unbeaten run and leaving fans furious.

Everton Go Down to 10… but Still Win

Idrissa Gueye was sent off in a bizarre moment in the first half.
He slapped his own teammate, Michael Keane, during an argument and the referee showed him a straight red card.

United had more than 75 minutes with an extra man, but still could not take control.

Everton, who had won only once at Old Trafford in 32 years, punished United through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who smashed a brilliant 20-yard finish into the top corner.
It was a historic win for David Moyes — his first Premier League victory at Old Trafford as a visiting manager.

United Look Lost Again

United had very few clear chances. Only in the final minutes did Joshua Zirkzee create danger, forcing two great saves from Jordan Pickford.

But overall, United were disjointed, slow, and confused.
If they want to fight for a Champions League place, Amorim has major problems to fix.

United and Everton now both sit on 18 points, level in mid-table — a huge disappointment for Manchester United.

A Strange, Chaotic First Half

The match started messy.
Amad Diallo tricked 37-year-old Seamus Coleman, who later left the pitch injured.
Everton caused problems with quick breaks, especially through Iliman Ndiaye.

Then came the chaos: Gueye pushed, slapped and argued with Keane, and after a VAR check the red card was shown. Pickford literally had to hold him back from going after Keane again.

United should have taken control, but instead Everton grew stronger and United grew worse.

Minutes later, Dewsbury-Hall found space, beat both Bruno Fernandes and Yoro too easily, and fired a rocket into the net.

Second Half Changes, Same Problems

Amorim made early changes: Mount on for Mazraoui, Mainoo on for Casemiro, Dalot moved positions
But United still lacked rhythm, creativity, and confidence.

Mount came close, Fernandes shot over multiple times, and Mbeumo wasted chances — but nothing looked truly dangerous.

Amorim kept telling his team to stay calm, pointing to his head on the sidelines, but United kept rushing and wasting opportunities.

Final Verdict

Manchester United failed to beat a team with 10 men for more than an hour.
Their attack was weak, their mindset shaky, and their structure broken.

A year after Amorim’s debut, United look no closer to being a top-four team.
