Everton 3 United 1: Player ratings
Van der Sar: Some wasteful distribution but not a lot he could have done about the goals 6 G Neville: It was only late on that the threat of Donovan got to him 6 Brown: With Saha largely in Evans territory it left him picking up pieces at times 6 Evans: Saha gave him a torrid time. Struggled to handle his power 5 Evra: The usually sprightly left back looked decidedly heavy-legged and way off form 5 Valencia: Cross for Berbatov opener was the best of the Ecuadorian but marking for Everton second was worst 6 Fletcher: After his San Siro effort even his engine looked low on fuel and was never really in it 5 Carrick: Didn't create anything for the Reds and unable to stop Everton 5 Park: The subdued Korean never gave Everton any seriously worrying moments 5 Berbatov: Superbly taken goal promised much from the Bulgarian but delicate touches came to nothing 6 Rooney: Disappointingly his devastating form came to abrupt halt at his old club 5 Subs: Scholes (sub Berbatov 65) Unable to provide spark 5 Obertan (sub Park 65) Couple of runs came to little 5 Owen (sub Valencia 81) No time to make impact 5 Vidic, Rafael, Gibson, Foster not used Everton: Howard, Heitinga, Distin, Baines, P Neville, Arteta, Pienaar (Rodwell 88), Osman, Bilyaletdinov (Gosling 70), Donovan, Saha Goals:Everton: Bilyaletdinov (19) Gosling (76) Rodwell (90)United: Berbatov (16) Bookings:Everton: Arteta (65) Pienaar (73) Saha (80) Rodwell (90)United: Fletcher (47) Battle of the Bosses:Fergie made changes from Milan but United still looked out of sorts. Moyes' subs did the business for him Referee: Howard Webb - Well controlled 7 Agree with the ratings? Have your say.
