Everton drew at home to Manchester United.
Manchester United midfielder Marouane Fellaini had a game to forget as his cameo appearance cost his side a win against former club Everton.
Fellaini came on with five minutes to go with United winning 1-0, but gave away a penalty which Leighton Baines scored to level the scores at 1-1.

Fellaini was predictably lambasted by fans after his game changing error, resulting in the Red Devils recording their third successive Premier League draw.
There was at least one observer though who was not convinced the referee should have awarded Everton a penalty.
Ex-Toffees midfielder Don Hutchison commented on Twitter after the game at Goodison, expressing his opinion on the result and the big decision.

As the picture above shows the referee had a clear view of the incident, and Fellaini’s protests led to a booking.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic had given United a first half opener, lobbing Everton goalkeeper Maarten Stekelenburg who had come off his line.
The draw keeps Everton in touch with United in the Premier League table, just one point behind, while Jose Mourinho’s side are now six behind Tottenham Hotspur in fifth place who they play next week.
