Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal is delighted seeing Radamel Falcao get off the mark. Falcao struck his first goal for United in victory over Everton yesterday.

"He needed that goal," said the United boss. "I have talked with him because I thought he was forcing himself too much to score a goal.

"He's a player who will normally score a goal every match and has had to wait so long. I can understand that but now he has scored it will be better after the international break."
