Are there any Everton fans among our followers already? Are you ready for the Toffees 1st #UFCC appearance since 27.08.1994? #Everon #EFC #UTFT #NSNO #EVEMNU

Even setting aside the shirt pulls by both United defenders here, hand pulling the hip to knock an attacker down should be a penalty every time.

It was correctly given, and VAR intervention here is an embarrassment.

Clear foul in the box (pulls on the shirt and a hand by Harry Maguire pulling on Young’s hip to force him down).

VAR trying desperately to find a way to not award it.

Ball hits Branthwaite in the face. United howl for a handball.

The fact that it’s then sent to VAR is an embarrassment, really.

Everton still need to get better at seeing out leads against lower-midtable teams like this.

The second free kick was well taken, but I’m not convinced there was actually a foul in the first place.

Making the end of the game harder than it needs to be.

#EVEMNU

Garner issued a yellow for homeopathic levels of contact in a challenge, then Beto is cleared out when well-positioned for a break and nothing is given.

The officiating bias in favor of “Top Six” teams apparently extends regardless where those teams are in the table.

Somebody should see if this guy wants to sit behind the United dugout for the second half.

Feels like as the first half ends, Ruben Amorim might be searching for any loopholes which would allow him to substitute the entire squad (except possibly Dorgu).
