Manchester United forward Cristiano Ronaldo scored the winner as the Red Devils beat Everton 2-1 at Goodison Park on Sunday night.
It has been a frustrating season so far for Ronaldo, who has been reduced to the role of substitute after failing to get his hoped-for summer move away from Old Trafford.
But introduced as a first-half substitute after Anthony Martial suffered another injury just three games into his comeback from the last one, Ronaldo raced on to Casemiro’s through ball and beat Jordan Pickford with a low drive to the England man’s near-post.
The goal was Ronaldo’s first at Goodison Park since 2005 and also his 700th club goal in his career.
Meanwhile, Brazilian forward Antony became the first United player to score in his first three Premier League games when he levelled after being sent through by Martial.
