Anthony Martial kept Manchester United’s Champions League qualification hopes alive as the Red Devils defeated Everton 1-0 at the Old Trafford on Sunday.
The 20-year-old Martial netted in the 54th minute at Old Trafford on the day United great Bobby Charlton had a stand named after him during a pre-match ceremony. It was also United’s 1000th Premier League home goal.
The 78-year-old Charlton, who remains a United director, was accompanied on the field by wife Norma to see his name unveiled above the South Stand.
Charlton survived the 1958 Munich air disaster which killed eight United teammates during a career that saw him win the English title three times, the European Cup and the 1966 World Cup with England.
United, currently ranked fifth, are just a point behind neighbour Manchester City with seven more games in hand.
