London: Radamel Falcao's first goal for Manchester United secured a 2-1 victory over Everton in the EPL at Old Trafford yesterday. But the final result also owed much to several fine saves by United goalkeeper David de Gea.

With the match all square at 1-1, Colombian striker Falcao — signed on loan for a reported 10 million euros on transfer deadline day —marked his fourth United appearance by scoring from six yards out after getting on the end of Angel di Maria's long-range shot in the 62nd minute.
Di Maria had given Louis van Gaal's side the lead (27 min) with a curled shot from inside the box.
