Everton paid for conceding two first-half penalties at Old Trafford as <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/football/article/tottenham-hit-back-twice-to-draw-2-2-against-man-utd-23330130" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">Manchester United</a> bounced back to winning ways to keep their Champions League hopes for next season alive with a 2-0 victory on Saturday.&nbsp;
Bruno Fernandes and Marcus Rashford converted from the spot to extend Everton&rsquo;s winless run in the Premier League to 11 games.&nbsp;
Victory takes United to within eight points of fourth-placed Aston Villa and three of Tottenham in fifth. Defeat leaves Everton still just five points above the relegation zone, having played two more games than 18th-placed Luton.&nbsp;
Back-to-back defeats to Fulham and Manchester City had dented a charge from Erik ten Hag&rsquo;s men towards the top four.&nbsp;
But with Villa and Tottenham facing off on Sunday, the Red Devils made the most of Everton&rsquo;s mistakes to close on their rivals for a return to the Champions League.&nbsp; Alejandro Garnacho scored a goal of the season contender when the sides last met in November with a stunning overhead kick.&nbsp;
The Argentine was again the difference between the sides as it was his quick feet that twice provoked spot-kicks. James Tarkowski was the first Everton defender lured into a mistimed challenge on 10 minutes and Fernandes rolled home his eighth goal of the season. Scoring goals has been Everton&rsquo;s shortfall all season and it was a familiar tale for the Toffees.
