Andre Onana not only helped MU defeat Everton 3-0, but he also contributed to the Red Devils setting a Premier League record.
It was a stunning day for the Red Devils, and when the attacking players all spoke up after the game, Erik ten Hag grinned.
Alejandro Garnacho put Man Utd ahead in the 3rd minute with a stunning bicycle kick.
Marcus Rashford doubled the gap for the away team in the 56th minute, before Martial also scored his first goal of the season, setting the final result 3-0 for the Red Devils at Everton Stadium.
In addition to the explosion of the attack, Man Utd’s match last night also recognized the excellent performance of goalkeeper Onana, who made a series of saves. The Cameroonian star is showing more and more certainty and reliability after a difficult start at the Theater of Dreams.
The Cameroon custodian made 6 saves, including excellent reflexes that prevented the hosts’ Idrissa Gueye from scoring.

By keeping a clean sheet at Everton’s home field, Andre Onana helped MU reach an important milestone: becoming the first team to keep 500 clean sheets in the Premier League.
Fans did not hesitate to praise the Cameroon star, even saying that he was the best player in the match, not Garnacho or Mainoo.
First person said: “Excellent shot-stopping”
The second person affirmed: “Without Onana, Man Utd wouldn’t even be able to get a point when leaving Goodison Park.”
A third person continued: “The Onana we all know and love is finally here”
A fourth person expressed: “We’ve managed to replace De Gea with De Gea 2.0. A good shot stopper with suspect distribution ”
After 13 rounds, Onana is also the goalie in the Premier League with the most clean sheets (5 matches).
Onana has gained confidence and seems more like himself after making a successful penalty save in the encounter against Copenhagen in October of last year, when he was an Inter Milan player.
After Man United’s loss to Galatasaray, Erik ten Hag projected a change in form, and he was optimistic about the Cameroonian’s comeback.
“We are happy with our goalkeeping group, definitely with Andre,” he said. “He was in one semi-final of the Champions League, last year he was in the final of the Champions League, he has the capabilities to be one of the best goalkeepers in the world.
“He has shown that and he will do. We already have seen in games his great capabilities, also his personality after he made mistakes. He will bounce back and I am sure he will in the coming games as well.”
Defeating Everton, MU is currently ranked 6th in the Premier League with 24 points, 4 points away from the top 4 position.
