    David: Surely has to end the myth that United get favourable decisions. Marinner has been Everton's 12th player all match

    Mr Clumbo: What on earth has happened to Falcao? Utterly unrecognisable from what he was

    Paul Watt Riley: I'm wanting Everton win but third was offside. It was a pass to Lukaku and he ran towards the ball, not away from it.

    Andy, Macclesfield: Linesmen cannot now flag offside until they know which player touches the ball. Shocking decision, clearly played to Lukaku

    Paul and Andy are referring to Everton's third goal, which Kevin Mirallas scored, even though Romelu Lukaku was offside

  2. INJURY TIMEpublished at 15:17 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    Three minutes to be added on. Manchester United stroking the ball about, but without any hope of getting back into it.

    Wayne Rooney also departs for Manchester United, with Robin van Persie on in his place. The Everton fans enjoyed sending the eternal Blue on his way.

    And Rooney is clutching ice to his left knee as he sits on the bench. Worrying for United.

  4. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 15:14 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    Arouna Kone and Steven Naismith come on for Romelu Lukaku and Ross Barkley. A bit more solidity in midfield and a bit more time nibble off the clock by Roberto Martinez.

  5. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:13 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    Kevin Mirallas close to a fourth for Everton!

    The Belgian skips in off the left wing, hurdling a couple of tired United challenges and unleashes a fizzing right-foot shot from 20 yards.

    David De Gea goes full length, stretching up a hand to turn it over. Just routine for him right now, but pretty special nonetheless.

    A double change coming up for Everton. Arouna Kone and Steven Naismith are waiting.

  7. DISALLOWED GOAL FOR UNITEDpublished at 15:08 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    That was a neat finish from Radamel Falcao. It might help his case for permanent deal, but it won't help the scoreline.

    The Colombian was offside as Daley Blind's block tackle in midfield rolled into his path. Still, he went round Tim Howard and slotted from a tight angle before realising the call had gone against him.

    United's Ander Herrera swipes at a shot from 20 yards, it catches a slight deflection off Seamus Coleman and is behind for a corner.

    "One for the former Everton Chairman. Sir Philip Carter would've enjoyed this."

    Sir Philip Carter died this week at the age of 87.

    That is surely Manchester United's goose cooked.

    Everton have been flogging season ticket hard all afternoon and the team have done the sales department a massive favour on the pitch. The Toffees have been very slick going forward.

    "Certainly Lukaku was offside but didn't get involved. It's difficult for defenders, but they know the rules and it is important they continue to play until the whistle. But Mirallas still had a bit to do and he finished well."

    This is going to provide plenty of post-match fodder for the rules geeks.

    Ross Barkley' loft forward is clearly aimed at the clearly offside Romelu Lukaku. The United defence slow to a stroll expecting a whistle.

    But Kevin Mirallas - bombing on from an onside position - doesn't hesitate. He sweeps in ahead of Lukaku, races in on goal and fires a low finish past David De Gea.

    Andre Marriner is happy to let it stand.

    Donovan Dunn: Watching Falcao is like a child in a jumping castle. Bounces off everything. £280k a week? Come on now

    Kyle, Bristol: Carrick is as important to United as Matic is to Chelsea. Without them, the team looks unbalanced and fragile

    David Broome: United's form has regressed by the minute in this second half - need signings. Right-back and striker with pace for starters

    Nearly very clever from Radamel Falcao.

    The Manchester United ghosts into space between the two Everton centre-halves and is picked out by a long ball forward from Angel Di Maria.

    The Colombian flicks a first-time header goalwards as Tim Howard comes off his line, but the American retreats in time to jump and claim it.

  15. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:56 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    Leon Osman makes way for Kevin Mirallas for Everton.

    That looks like a pretty much straight swap on the left wing, bringing on some fresh legs.

    "Louis van Gaal has brought on Angel di Maria for Juan Mata and obviously feels he has to try something else. Bringing Falcao on for Marouane Fellaini at half-time has not worked. There's not a lot of space in behind Everton, and Fellaini's height could have been something United could have used."

    Angel Di Maria has time to deliver some quality from the right wing, but instead dumps a tame, looping cross into the gloves of Tim Howard.

    The former Real Madrid man look like he is staying out on that flank with Ander Herrera staying central and getting advanced.

  18. YELLOW CARDpublished at 14:52 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    Aaron Lennon was away there and off to set up another dangerous counter, if Luke Shaw had not been water-skiing off the back of him, clinging on to a fistful of shirt.

    A deserved yellow for a cynical foul.

  19. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 14:50 British Summer Time 26 April 2015

    United have come off the boil in the last five minutes. Louis van Gaal has decided to inject Angel Di Maria into the action. A peeved Juan Mata makes way.

    Di Maria will presumably take up a role behind Wayne Rooney and Radamel Falcao who have been playing as a pretty conventional front two for the visitors.

    Some top gesturing from a pair of young Everton fans behind Antonio Valencia as he takes a throw-in, both of them giving the United full-back an emphatic and repeated thumbs down.

    The innocence of youth.
