    Marcus Rashford will take no further part. No point taking risks at 2-0 up, but nobody from Man Utd will want to see the forward out for any length of time.

    Wout Weghorst is on as Rashford limps towards the tunnel.

    Everton boss Sean Dyche has one man to thank for his team still being in this.

    Jordan Pickford has been outstanding this afternoon.

    Somehow, we have reached the last 20 minutes and Everton are still in with a chance of nicking something.

    It would be undeserved and a bit out of the blue. But that has happened plenty of times before.

    Chris: A better team than Everton would’ve taken advantage and scored while they were on top, now they’ve been punished for it. If they stay up it’ll be no thanks to themselves, but lucky how poor the teams around them are.

    Tom: Everton look a lot less lost than we did under Frank but Dyche can only do so much. Our failure to sign anyone in January will be our undoing.

    There will have been a few nerves in the ground before that second goal - United fans fearing Everton nicking a late leveller.

    Demarai Gray has a chance to get one, but drags his effort wide.

    He was only on the pitch 10 minutes and he has already scored more Premier League goals in this game than Wout Weghorst has managed in his entire loan spell at Manchester United.

    No wonder Erik ten Hag was so keen to get the Frenchman fit.

    That is Anthony Martial's first Premier League goal since December.

    He loves playing Everton. He has now been involved in 12 goals in 16 appearances for Manchester United against Everton in all competitions (8 goals, 4 assists), his most goal involvements against any opponent for the Red Devils.

    Tottenham's starting XI is unchanged from Monday's disappointing draw with Everton for the visit of Brighton today.

    Brazilian forward Richarlison does make a surprise appearance on the bench, however.

    Game over, surely!

    It's a clanger from Seamus Coleman that sets this up - the Everton defender allowing a long ball forward to squirm under his boot.

    It sets Marcus Rashford up behind him. His low ball is converted easily by Anthony Martial.
