Ruben Amorim enjoyed a perfect Premier League home debut as Manchester United thrashed Everton 4-0 on Sunday, with Marcus Rashford and Joshua Zirkzee each scoring twice. The victory followed a tough 1-1 draw at Ipswich in Amorim’s first game in charge, but United showed attacking flair against struggling Everton, much to the delight of the Old Trafford crowd. Rashford opened the scoring with a deflected shot, while Zirkzee netted his first goal since the season’s opening day. United’s second-half goals came quickly, with Rashford finishing off a fine counter-attack and Zirkzee adding a second with another assist from Amad Diallo.
The win lifted United to ninth in the table, just four points from the top four, while Everton remain near the relegation zone, facing tough fixtures over the holidays. The result marked a bright moment for United fans amid protests over ticket price hikes and ownership issues.
