    The noise!

    Fans greeted Alessia Russo's headed goal by leaping out of their seats and punching the air.

    That was her eighth league goal of the season and she is now the leading English scorer in the Women's Super League.

    GOAL - Man Utd 1-1 Evertonpublished at 35 mins

    Alessia Russo

    United are back level.

    It's a good team move. Jackie Groenen finds the overlapping run of Ona Batlle down the right. She puts in a lovely cross which Alessia Russo rises to meet and loops a header over Sandy MacIver, who had no chance.

    Manchester United are pressing to try and get back in this but Everton look a danger on the break and Kenza Dali can't quite pick out Toni Duggan in the middle.

    Leah Galton flaps her arms around in frustration a la Cristiano Ronaldo as Ella Toone's attempted through ball fails to reach her.

    Man Utd 0-1 Everton

    United have 10 goals from corners this season, and you can see why.

    Katie Zelem's delivery is so dangerous, right under Sandy MacIver's nose, but a blue shirt gets back to head away.

    Part of the problem for Man Utd in the midfield is that Katie Zelem is a bit more creative when you are looking for someone to cover those areas. She's not a destroyer; that may be where Everton are spotting a weakness.

    Lovely play from Manchester United, Leah Galton squeezing out a pass to Ella Toone.

    She cuts the ball across the six-yard box but no red shirt is on hand to convert.

    And as I soon as I say that, Sandy MacIver is drawn into her first save, keeping out Hannah Blundell's volley from eight yards out.

    Sandy MacIver has a deckchair out and is sipping on a slush in that Everton goal.

    A nice, easy day out for her so far.

    Mary Earps is OK though and can continue.

    United goalkeeper Mary Earps comes out well to claim a high cross, but takes a knock to the back of the head.

    This is a must-win for United in terms of their Champions League ambitions. With just four WSL games after this - and both Manchester City and Tottenham waiting to pounce on any slip-ups, every point is vital.

    It's been a sloppy start by the Red Devils. Has the occasion got to them?

    Oh that is delightful from Toni Duggan, spinning away from Maria Thorisdottir on the halfway line.

    The centre half has to drag back the England international and is booked.

    United's decision making in the final third has not been great so far.

    Ella Toone breaks clear but then back come a swarm of Everton shirts and the shot is blocked.

    There is space behind for Everton. They've scored one already, but Toni Duggan will be thinking 'just get the ball into space'. Man Utd have to push, but Everton can take advantage.

    There is plenty of time to get back into this game. Man Utd need to get back to their gameplan; moving the ball quickly, through the third, finding Leah Galton and getting crosses into the box.

    A heavy touch from Gabby George at the back allows Alessia Russo to nip in, but a low shot from outside the box is straight at Sandy MacIver.

    Poor from United skipper Katie Zelem, going for the shot from range when a cross or pass was the better option.

    That wasn't supposed to happen.

    What a finish by Claire Emslie right in front of the Stretford End! An Everton breakaway and it was such a composed finish by the Scotland forward. Everton have had a disjointed season but that finish was right up there.
