Xinhua News Agency, London, January 6 (Reporter Zhang Wei) Manchester United, who have been in good form recently, sent away Everton 3-1 at home in the third round of the FA Cup on the 6th. Recently, 10 wins in 11 games in all competitions, and eight consecutive victories at home. Manchester United’s record is eye-catching.
