Manchester United v Everton: Premier League – live

8.56pm GMT Half-time reading: Related: Arsenal’s Premier League dominance is not under threat. At least not yet | Jonathan Wilson 8.55pm GMT My inbox is divided over the red card, which only goes to show what a subjective call it was by referee Tony Harrington. “Re the Keane-Gueye Affair, the contact is negligible in that two teammates will flare like that often and then get on with the game,” emails Gary Naylor. “The “raised hand” looks bad as does the contact, but hands are put to faces at almost every corner and nobody bats an eyelid. Surely the caveat is inserted into the law to give the officials a chance to breathe, take a moment and then apply a bit of discretion. They should have.” “The rules are clear, people would go even madder if referees started ignoring them - why is it different because it’s teammates?” replies Dan Christmas. “Players have been getting sent off for this sort of thing for decades, it’s nothing to do with any of the rule changes that may or may not have ruined football.” 8.51pm GMT Half-time: Manchester United 0-1 Everton Frustration and whistles at Old Trafford as Everton comfortably see out the half. What a strange half of football! 8.51pm GMT 45+2min: Yellow card for Mbeumo, who pulls back Garner on a dangerous Everton counter-attack. Fernandes gave the ball away cheaply and Mbeumo actually did well to track back and make the cynical foul. Everton could well have scored a second there. 8.49pm GMT 45 min: Fernandes takes aim from 25 yards … the ball heading towards the top corner … but Pickford dives to his right and produces a brilliant save! It was a bit Hollywood in truth, Pickford’s footwork was excellent and the keeper got across to it well, but it was still a fine save. Four minutes added on here. 8.47pm GMT 43 min: I’d be shocked if Amorim doesn’t make substantial changes at half-time, to both the formation and the personnel. United can afford to be a lot more attacking. “You’d think that United will come back, but also let’s face it, not capitalising on the City and Liverpool losses would be a very United thing to do,” emails Tomasz Rykała. 8.45pm GMT 41 min: Diallo has probably been United’s brightest player and the tricky Ivory Coast international has room to turn on the edge of Everton’s box. Diallo cuts onto his weaker right and drags a shot wide, but that is better from United, taking risks and responsibility. 8.43pm GMT 39 min: United have been very poor, even since the red card and the goal, but the two wing-backs Mazraoui and Dorgu are at least playing very high now, pinning Everton back. Grealish and Ndiaye are now not such a threat going forward now that United have remembered that they can throw players forward. 8.40pm GMT 37 min: One player that has been very quiet is Mbeumo and the Cameroon international is left on a heap on the ground. He’s going to be OK to continue, though. 8.39pm GMT 35 min: I’m told that Gueye’s sending off is the first red card issues for a ‘fight’ between teammates since Stoke’s City’s Ricardo Fuller and Andy Griffin went at it, all the way back in 2008. Related: Stoke City's Ricardo Fuller says he was provoked into slapping his captain Andy Griffin And, of course, who can forget Lee Bowyer and Kieron Dyer. Related: Newcastle men sent off for fighting each other 8.37pm GMT 33 min: Quite well, it turns out. Zirkzee exchanges pass with Fernandes before whipping a brilliant low cross across the face of Everton’s goal. It finds Dorgu at the back post, but the Danish full back shoots high and wide – he really should be doing better there. Great play from Zirkzee, who has flickered between being the best and most wasteful player on the pitch here. 8.35pm GMT 31 min: You can’t say that Everton don’t deserve that! How will Manchester United react? 8.33pm GMT GOAL! Manchester United 0-1 Everton (Dewsbury-Hall 29) An absolutely outrageous goal from Dewsbury-Hall! The Everton midfielder cuts inside Fernandes, then beats Yoro before curling a magnificent shot into the top corner with his weaker right foot from 25 yards out! The Everton away fans erupt! WHAT. A. GOAL. Updated at 8.44pm GMT 8.31pm GMT 26 min: “That red card for me is the latest example of how football has become such a sanitised, prescriptive sport,” emails Matthew Hobbs. “On top of endless replays to decide whether anyone has brushed the toe of a goalkeeper or five minutes to rule on a supposedly semi-automated offside, we now have a player being sent off for some handbags with a teammate over a simple lapse in defence. Yes, the rules say a raised hand is violent conduct but is it too much to expect some common sense to be applied by officials anymore? A clip round the ear between squabbling teammates surely requires a talking to and nothing more.” 8.30pm GMT 23 min: Everton look comfortable, at the moment. United haven’t managed to create anything of note. 8.27pm GMT 21 min: “I like [Sky Sports co-commentator] Gary Neville, but sometimes he is contrary just for the sake of it,” emails Joshua Keeling. “At first I thought there might not be enough in it for a red card, but when you see the replays, Gueye slapped Keane in the face. It’s as clear a red card as you’ll ever see.” I agree that I don’t think the red card will be overturned on appeal, and Gueye will almost certainly serve a full three-match ban. The official ruling is that any strike to the face is a red, “unless the force is negligible”, which is obviously open to interpretation. I think if Gueye slaps an opponent like that, it’s an obvious red. Somehow, against his own teammate, it feels like the threshold it larger. Perhaps it shouldn’t be. 8.24pm GMT 19 min: United settle into a rhythm of possession but Everton still pose a threat on the break. Ndiaye leads a counter attack, skipping around a tackle and clear of Diallo, but can’t find the right through ball to Barry. 8.22pm GMT 17 min: Moyes is, as you might expect, unimpressed with all that. His side now face a daunting 75ish minutes to navigate with 10 men against a team that they were previously dominating. 8.21pm GMT 14 min: Replays of Gueye’s initial slap or shove on Keane are inconclusive, but there didn’t look to be much in that. Keane gave Gueye a decent shove in the chest first, almost as though to say ‘get on with the game’ and Gueye reacted by giving his teammate a bit of a clip around the ear. A red card feels harsh but the referee has ruled it as violent conduct. 8.19pm GMT RED CARD FOR EVERTON'S IDRISSA GUEYE! 13 min: After Fernandes sees a long-range shot whistle just wide of the far post, Gueye confronts his own teammate, Michael Keane. The two have a few handbags, with Gueye appearing to slap Keane in the face. Referee Tony Harrington immediately produces the red card, which sends Gueye into a frenzy, and the Senegalese has to be held back by Ndiaye and Pickford and bundled down the tunnel. Gueye was ready to throw hands there, before he was led away. What a mess for Everton, who were the dominant team here! Gueye of Everton is shown a red card.

It’s not clear if the veteran has an injury or if Moyes has been very unimpressed by Coleman’s opening 10 minutes. I suspect the latter because Coleman played a couple of loose passes and put in a dreadful cross. Coleman kicks a bottle as he goes down the touchline, he looks extremely ticked off. 8.12pm GMT 9 min: Off the ball, Tarkowski shoves Zirkzee to the ground. The United forward writhes around for a bit, then gets to his feet and confronts the Everton defender, who looks down his nose at the Dutchman. There is a bit of handbags and finger-pointing and play resumes. 8.10pm GMT 7 min: It’s heartening to still see right-footed players on the right wing. Iliman Ndiaye is one of the most exciting wingers in the league and the Everton wide man digs out a sensational dinked cross to the back post, where Yoro does well to glance it away. A centre forward better than Barry might have been there to nod that one in. 8.08pm GMT 6 min: This has been a promising start from Everton, who are really snapping into challenges in midfield, harrying those in red. I think you might describe these opening minutes as ‘busy’ rather than full of quality. 8.06pm GMT 4 min: “Looking at the teams, it’s great to see Martinez on the bench, I expect he’ll get half an hour,” emails Remo Casale. “But to me it seems United’s bench is almost stronger than the team being fielded. Martinez, Mount, Mainoo, Ugarte and Dalot. I guess Amorim knows what he’s doing, it’s not the team I’d pick.” Lisandro Martinez hasn’t played a minute of first-team football since early February but is back in the reckoning now. He also trained with Argentina national team over the international break. 8.04pm GMT 2 min: A loose pass from Coleman, who captains Everton tonight, but Dewsbury-Hall does well to retain possession and earn a free-kick. Wasted by Garner. Moyes scowls on the touchline. He knows how important set pieces are today. 8.01pm GMT PEEEEEEEEEEP! And we’re off at Old Trafford! 7.59pm GMT A tribute in the stands at Old Trafford to Stone Roses bassist Mani, whose death was announced on Thursday. Mani was a huge United fan. There’s a great snap of him in this gallery, at the Champions League final between Barcelona and Manchester United in 2011.

I was in the Stretford End but living in London. Now I live in Brasil.” 7.52pm GMT A reminder of Manchester United’s situation with their attackers. Bryan Mbeumo and Amad Diallo will depart for Afcon in the next few weeks, by which time Sesko might be back. Might. Related: Amorim expects Sesko back before attacking duo depart for Africa Cup of Nations Matheus Cunha appears is injured, although it is not exactly clear what has happened. The Brazilian had been due to turn on the Christmas lights in Altrincham on Saturday evening. But the organisers wrote on Facebook that “Unfortunately, Matheus Cunha has had an accident in training today and will not be able to attend tonight’s Christmas Lights Switch on in Altrincham due to medical reasons.” More breaking news from the Facebook pages of Altrincham, when we have it. 7.31pm GMT Joe Keggin emails: “My favourite moment from this fixture – and maybe any – was Duncan Ferguson’s winner in 2005 at a feral Goodison. My season ticket was right behind the Gwladys Street goal, and I can still see that ball in from Arteta and the chaos afterwards.” 7.18pm GMT Here’s what Moyes had to say on his return to Old Trafford. Related: David Moyes says Manchester United upheaval is departure from club values 7.16pm GMT Joshua Zirkzee hasn’t started a match for Amorim all season, but due to the injuries to Sesko and Cunha, gets a chance to impress here. Just his sixth appearance of the season in all competitions. Séamus Coleman, similarly, has been starved of club football but given he is 37, that is maybe not a huge surprise. The right back, however, did play all 90+ minutes of Republic of Ireland’s historic win in Hungary and that has maybe convinced David Moyes to hand Coleman his first start in over two months. Elsewhere, it’s more or less what you would expect from either side. United line up with their 3-4-3 or 3-5-2, Everton in their 4-2-3-1. Updated at 7.46pm GMT 7.02pm GMT The teams! Manchester United: Lammens, Yoro, de Ligt, Shaw, Mazraoui, Casemiro, Fernandes, Dorgu, Diallo, Mbeumo, Zirkzee. Subs: Bayindir, Dalot, Martinez, Mount, Malacia, Ugarte, Heaven, Mainoo, Lacey. Everton: Pickford, Garner, Tarkowski, Keane, Mykolenko, Coleman, Gueye, Ndiaye, Dewsbury-Hall, Grealish, Barry. Subs: Travers, King, McNeil, Beto, O’Brien, Dibling, Alcaraz, Aznou, Iroegbunam. 7.00pm GMT Preamble This one has a bit of a nostalgic feel, like some sort of sepia ITV fever dream with Clive Tyldesley and Andy Townsend on comms (unfortunately you’ll have to make do with me). Maybe it’s because it’s Old Trafford under the lights and the distant memories of those palatial Champions League evenings or maybe it’s just because Manchester United and Everton are two of England’s grandest clubs that share so many merged memories that bridge matches, players and moments (the first things that come to mind: Paul Rideout at Wembley, Wayne Rooney and Phil Neville, Alejandro Garnacho’s bicycle kick, Steven Pienaar’s equaliser in the 4-4 draw that proved to be a decisive moment in the 2012 title race). Do get in touch with your favourite moments from this fixture, or in general: michael.butler@theguardian.com. Yes, this is a fixture rooted in the past but both clubs are entering new eras. Following over a decade of banter years, United are beginning to emerge into something approaching respectability. Of course, by the standards of Busby and Ferguson, they are still lightyears away from what might be deemed acceptable but there are green shoots under Ruben Amorim. United could possibly go fourth with a victory here, could they force their way into the reckoning for the top four come the end of the season? That would be a sizeable achievement. New stadium and an old manager, Everton are another team in flux. Nobody is quite sure how far this team can go under David Moyes, anywhere and everything from a relegation battle to European qualification remains a possibility. That’s quite an exciting and enticing thing for Everton fans. It would be a surprise but not a shock for them to leave Manchester with all three points today, even if a win today would represent just a second victory at United in 32 years. In 17 attempts Moyes has never won at Old Trafford and was in the home dugout when Everton last won here in 2013. It’s all set up to be a cracker. Kick-off: 8pm GMT.
