OLD BUT GOLD
Four of Cavani’s six PL goals have been headers, with D Calvert-Lewin (5) the only player to score more headers this season in the PL.
Cavani’s four headed goals is the most in a season for Man Utd in the PL since Zlatan Ibrahimovic (4) in 2016-17.
ANCELOTTI’S THOUGHTS
Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti gave his post-match thoughts to Sky Sports: “I think we started well and were a little bit shy in the first half.
“After that the game was in control. We would not have deserved to lose. We had opportunities in counter-attacks in the first half but were not clinical.
“I am really proud. The spirit is really good. We have a good run in this moment.
“We have to keep this spirit high. We showed that at 3-2 we did not want to lose.”
CALVERT-LEWIN SPEAKS
Everton hero Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored an equaliser right at the death to win his side a point.
The striker told Sky Sports: “It was frustrating to let them in from a set-piece after we came back from two goals down.
“But I just smelled the goal at the end and I was ready to put it in.
“I was just waiting for a little nick, I knew I wasn’t going to get the first contact.
“It was just about being ready for the second one, for it to drop, and once it hit me in the stomach I knew I could get there before the ‘keeper.”
DEVILS IN THE DETAIL
Manchester United were dealt late heartbreak as Dominic Calvert-Lewin resuced a point for Everton at the death.
United were 2-0 up and seemingly coasting before Carlo Ancelotti’s troops fought back to 2-2.
But Scott McTominay’s header put United back in front – until the late, late drama saw it finish 3-3.
