Cristiano Ronaldo came off the bench to score his 700th club goal as Manchester United came from behind to win 2-1 against Everton at Goodison Park.
After Antony cancelled out Alex Iwobi's early strike, an injury to Anthony Martial presented Ronaldo with his opportunity inside the first half and he did not waste it, scoring his first Premier League goal of the season before the break.
Marcus Rashford thought he had made it three late in the game but his goal was ruled out for an inadvertent handball. But though Everton pushed hard late on in pursuit of an equaliser, it came to nothing as Manchester United secured a deserved win.
The result, a fifth Premier League win in six games for Erik ten Hag's side, sees United bounce back from their derby defeat and lifts them up to fifth in the table. Frank Lampard's side are down in 12th, their unbeaten six-game run at an end.

Everton had enjoyed the ideal start. The in-form Iwobi curled the ball beyond David de Gea from well outside the penalty box to spark wild celebrations among the home support. It was another sluggish start by United, Casemiro culpable as he was dispossessed.
But Everton were unable to build on that lead and were punished midway through the first half when Antony finished expertly after being put through by Martial. They only had themselves to blame as Idrissa Gueye lost the ball. It was a sign of things to come.
"Quickly 1-0 down. But the reaction of the team is good," said Ten Hag when speaking to BT Sport after the game.
"That's one of our aims, to respond well to setbacks.
"First half we were pressing well. It was difficult for them to come into the game. Happy with that.
"We are also happy with all the subs coming on. Cristiano with the winning goal. Happy with the result of course, but for a lot of periods, also happy with the performance.
"The game was lost in the first half from our point of view," Lampard told BT Sport.
"It's a performance short of where we have been and against a team of quality like Manchester United if you make mistakes, turnovers that lead directly to goals, it is a big threat and always has been.
"It was a great start and in effect it made us a little bit passive in our game. We sat in there. We had to correct that at half-time because we were late to things. I didn't like some of that stuff. It was better in the second half and we showed a lot of spirit in the end.
"I applaud that but it is disappointing because of where we are at. We have been moving in the right direction and we just get checked. It might not be the worst thing in the long term."
Casemiro has had to wait for his first Premier League start. He first came off the bench in August but after four substitute appearances, here he was in the starting line-up. He helped make the difference in the end but only after some difficult moments at Everton.
Bundled off the ball in the build-up to Iwobi's opening goal, he also surrendered possession before what turned out to be Manchester United's winner. Fortunately, he quickly retrieved it before measuring his pass through for Ronaldo to score.
The Brazilian has produced more convincing performances in his long and distinguished career but this was an important one for his new manager because it hinted at the greater stability that he might provide for this team when he is fully up to speed.
Casemiro made four tackles in the game at Goodison Park - twice as many as anyone else on the pitch. That ability to provide a defensive screen ahead of the defence will be crucial if Ten Hag is to succeed. Passes such as the one for Ronaldo's winner? They will help too.
