The experienced Northern Irishman made his fifth appearance of the season in all competitions as he lined up alongside Harry Maguire in central defence for the Reds against Unai Emery’s side.
An accomplished performer at the back, the 36-year-old put in a solid shift throughout the 90 minutes as United earned a third consecutive clean sheet on the road in the Premier League.
His impressive showing also earned Jonny the Man of the Match award with 57 per cent of the vote, as chosen by United fans in our app.
Speaking to MUTV afterwards, Evans expressed that he was raring to go in the West Midlands, after being told by Erik ten Hag that he would be in the starting XI when travelling home from the Europa League match against FC Porto, as the boss rotated his central defence.
