Manchester United's Darren Fletcher produced a superb strike as he helped his side ease to a win over Everton.
Fletcher converted United's dominance into a goal when he got over a hip-high ball and sent a shot into the top corner from the edge of the box. Michael Carrick swept in the second after being picked out by Ryan Giggs. Antonio Valencia completed Everton's misery when his angled far post shot went in via a deflection as the champions ran out comfortable winners. It was an improved performance from United following two defeats in three Premier League games and came after leaders Chelsea had temporarily moved eight points clear of them by hammering 4-0 Wolves. Everton had knocked United out at the FA Cup semi-final stage last season but, without a win at Old Trafford in the league since 1992, anything but a United win seemed unlikely - and so it proved.
