Harry Maguire Appeared To Appeal For Handball On His OWN Teammate In Man United Loss

Maguire was involved in a comical moment with Nemanja Matic in the first half of their Premier League clash at Goodison Park.

Anthony Gordon headed the ball onto Matic's arm, with the Man United captain seemingly appealing for handball - despite it striking his colleague's arm.

Maguire raised his arm as he looked like he was calling for the referee's attention.

The England defender also had a say in the only goal of the game.

Gordon struck a shot from outside the box that deflected off Maguire into the back of the net, leaving David De Gea with no chance in net.

The defeat leaves Ralf Rangnick's team languishing in seventh place, three points adrift of fourth-placed Tottenham.

Rangnick's side have now dropped league points in four of their last five matches, having drawn at home to Watford and Leicester City while losing to cross-town rivals Manchester City last month.

As for Everton, they remain one spot above the relegation zone, but the massive win sees them open up a four-point gap over 18th-placed Burnley.
