Everton superb as Man Utd humiliated at Goodison Park

Everton humiliated Manchester United 4-0 to all but end their hopes of a top four finish on Sunday.

Gylfi Sigurdsson and Lucas Digne scored stunning long-range goals after Richarlison's acrobatic opener at Goodison Park.

Substitute Theo Walcott completed the rout with a guided finish.

A lacklustre United, who were knocked out of the Champions League by Barcelona on Tuesday, were bereft of ideas and their only shot on target came in the 86th minute.

Marcus Rashford spurned their best chance when he got behind the Everton defence and his lob sailed over Jordan Pickford's crossbar.

Victory lifted Everton to seventh in the table, which could deliver European football next season, while United remain sixth.
