Analysis: A night to remember for the Toffees

In a stadium where David Moyes endured so much misery as Manchester United boss and where he has never had any success in the Premier League with anyone else, never could the Scot have believed his first victory would come attached to such drama.

As someone who prides himself on behaving properly, how he deals with the Idrissa Gueye and Michael Keane spat will be fascinating. What must the midfielder have been thinking to himself, knowing his team-mates showed such character after playing for so long without him?

The applause they and Moyes took from the away fans, who backed their team throughout, was fully deserved.

For his part, despite the overt fury at Gueye's behaviour, Keane did not let the issue affect him and, alongside James Tarkowski, he was outstanding as Everton held firm.

The collective work ethic in the Everton ranks was epitomised by former Manchester United midfielder James Garner, who was drenched in sweat by the end of the match because he had done so much work.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's goal was worthy of winning the game, even if questions can be asked of United goalkeeper Senne Lammens.

But Everton's joyous fans did not care about that as they 'sang the blues' long after the players had left the scene of battle.

In every sense, this was an 'I was there' night.
