Sat Feb 22 16:18:40 UTC 2025: ## Manchester United Stage Late Comeback to Draw 2-2 at Everton
**Liverpool, England** – Manchester United fought back from a two-goal deficit to snatch a thrilling 2-2 draw against Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday. The comeback prevented a third consecutive defeat for the Red Devils and denied Everton a potentially significant victory under their new manager, David Moyes.
Everton, revitalized since Moyes’ arrival, took a deserved lead through Beto’s volley, his fifth goal in four Premier League games. Abdoulaye Doucouré added a second before halftime, capitalizing on a Jack Harrison shot that André Onana could only parry.
United, offering little attacking threat in the first half, transformed their performance after the break. Bruno Fernandes scored a stunning free-kick, his first direct free-kick goal in the league since July 2020, sparking the comeback. Manuel Ugarte then netted his first goal for the club with a powerful volley to level the score.
The drama continued into stoppage time when a penalty was awarded to Everton after Ashley Young went down in the box. However, a VAR review overturned the decision, deeming Young’s fall to be a simulation. The 2-2 draw leaves United with 14 points since the arrival of manager Ruben Amorim in November, while Everton secured 16 points from a possible 21 under Moyes.
