Manchester United 'hungry for success' as Everton win takes them top of WSL table

Marc Skinner has said Manchester United are "hungry for success" after his side comfortably dispatched Everton to maintain their flawless start to the season.

United came into Sunday's clash having never lost a Women's Super League game against the Blues, and looked to extend their winning run to five league games, having kept a clean sheet in their first four. However, Everton posed a more ominous prospect than last term, with Brian Sorensen's revitalised side having won three of their last four league matches; as many wins as they managed across their previous 19 games in the WSL.

It was United who has the first chance to go in front; Ella Toone denied from getting her seventh career goal against the Blues after her shot was tipped behind by Courtney Brosnan. And it wasn't long before the Red Devils capitalised on their early dominance, with former Everton striker Nikita Parris putting her old club to the sword after a defensive mix up in the penalty area between Brosnan and Megan Finnigan.
