Late goals sees Man United reach Carabao Cup semis

Uruguay sensation Cavani latched onto a powerful kick in the 88th minute from Martial’s service for the game’s first goal.

A tense, tight affair in front of a smattering of fans at Goodison Park saw both sides struggle for clear attempts as the game progressed before Cavani rescued the visitors.

As Everton tried to find an equaliser on a final set piece, Martial sealed the win with a goal on a break-away for the game’s final sequence.
