Manchester United's youngsters provided the perfect response to their defeat to Leeds earlier this week as they beat Everton 3-0 at Old Trafford in the Premier League 2 on Friday night.
Goals from unsung hero Charlie Savage and a brace from D'Mani Mellor secured a well-earned three points for Neil Wood's side. A healthy crowd of nearly 10,000 had packed into Elland Road for the 3-0 loss earlier in the week, and there were another 3,121 at Old Trafford as United showed their determination to put on an impressive second-half showing.
It was a first half low on quality as both sides struggled to find a way to unleash their attacking threats against well-drilled defensive lines. United's biggest threats came from the ever-lively Alvaro Fernandez at left-back and the versatile Charlie Wellens who posed a constant threat with his dangerous runs into the box.
