Falcao happy with first Man Utd goal: And my family wants to stay for many years!

Radamel Falcao is delighted to be off the mark for Manchester United.

The on-loan AS Monaco striker struck the winner against Everton yesterday.

"All strikers need goals, and for me there was a little bit of relief to score my first goal," he told MUTV. "I hope to score many in the future. It was amazing that my first goal was at Old Trafford, I enjoyed it with all the fans and I want to say thank you to God, my team mates, all the staff and the coaches."

Having clinched three points with his quick thinking positioning inside the box, Falcao is looking to the future beyond his current loan from Monaco.

"Me and my family are happy here, and we would like to stay for many years at Manchester United."
