Everton 1 Manchester United 0: 

Robin van Persie had a Manchester United debut to forget as Everton's Marouane Fellaini stole the show at Goodison Park.

Fellaini capped a superb individual performance with the only goal of the game in the second half.

Van Persie, United's new £24million signing, came off the bench but, like the rest of his team-mates, could not cope with David Moyes' men.

Jump for joy: Marouane Fellaini gets up to head the ball past United keeper David De Gea.

David De Gea had to be at his best in the first half, saving from Leon Osman and then keeping out a free-kick from Leighton Baines.

Wayne Rooney had a couple of chances for the visitors but it was the home side, with Fellaini making them tick, who bossed the opening 45 minutes.

Osman then smashed an effort off the crossbar shortly after the restart and Everton kept up the pressure until Fellaini powered home a header just short of the hour mark.

Van Persie left the bench to warm up just after the goal and was on the pitch in place of Danny Welbeck 10 minutes later.

But Everton kept him quiet and deserved the three points.
