For the second consecutive game, the Portuguese playmaker captained United at Old Trafford but on this occasion, he was unable to lead his team to victory as the Reds' interval lead was cancelled out by Toffees winger Andros Townsend in the second half.
Fernandes's 50th involvement in a Premier League goal had helped the Reds to go 1-0 up, as our no.18 controlled the ball excellently before finding Anthony Martial at the corner of Everton's area. The Frenchman fired in his first strike of the season and at that stage, the Reds looked in good shape to go on and get the win.
