During Manchester United's recent 3-0 triumph over Everton, it was Alejandro Garnacho who stole the spotlight with a remarkable goal. The third-minute spectacle saw Garnacho executing an overhead kick similar to Wayne Rooney's strike against Manchester City almost 10 years ago. This moment set the tone for a display of athleticism and skill that left Everton's goalkeeper, Jordan Pickford, as a mere spectator.

As the second half unfolded, Manchester United continued to assert dominance. In the 56th minute, VAR played a pivotal role, overturning a decision on the pitch and awarding a penalty to United. Marcus Rashford, ending a dry spell since early September, confidently converted the penalty, doubling United's lead.

The final blow for Everton came in the 75th minute, courtesy of Anthony Martial. A sublime pass from Bruno Fernandes found Martial, who elegantly chipped the ball over the advancing Pickford, sealing Everton's fate.

Under Erik ten Hag's guidance, Manchester United comfortably sat in sixth place in the Premier League standings with 24 points from 13 matches. Everton, on the other hand, faced a challenging situation near the bottom, exacerbated by a recent 10-point deduction due to financial irregularities, leaving them with a mere four points.

In a thrilling encounter at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Tottenham's struggles persisted as they suffered a 2-1 defeat against Aston Villa. Despite an early lead through Giovani Lo Celso's deflected strike, Tottenham failed to capitalize on their dominance, eventually succumbing to a powerful header from Pau Torres.

The second half saw Aston Villa seizing control, with Ollie Watkins capitalizing on a pass from Youri Tielemans to secure the lead. Despite hitting the woodwork and squandering chances, Tottenham couldn't find an equalizer, with an injury to Rodrigo Bentancur adding to their woes.

Unai Emery's Aston Villa climbed to fourth place in the Premier League standings with 28 points, level with Liverpool but ahead on goal difference. Tottenham, now in fifth place, reflects on a third consecutive league defeat that hampers their top-four aspirations.
