MANCHESTER, England (AP) - Everton beat Manchester United 1-0 on Monday to slow the home team's recent revival in a Premier League game that will be remembered for an early [red card shown to Everton's Idrissa Gueye](https://apnews.com/article/everton-slap-red-card-gueye-5101f72d414cd9c6dc28524621cb8b13) for striking teammate Michael Keane.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall scored with a superb strike in the 29th minute, after which Everton was forced to defend its lead. United dominated the visiting 10 men in a one-sided second half but failed to equalize.
It was United´s first defeat since losing 3-1 at Brentford almost two months ago and the first time in 47 Premier League games that a visiting team has won at Old Trafford with 10 men.
However, the night´s unforgettable talking point came after 13 minutes.
Gueye was furious at what appeared to be Keane´s failure to pick up his pass inside the Everton penalty box. Bruno Fernandes stepped in and fired wide but an angry Gueye confronted Keane.
Keane shoved Gueye, who responded with a slap to Keane's face. Referee Tony Harrington displayed the red card for "violent conduct."

"The referee´s call of red card to Gueye for violent conduct was checked and confirmed by VAR - with the action deemed to be a clear strike to the face of Keane," the league said in a social media post.
The Senegalese was the first player to be sent off in the Premier League for fighting with a teammate since Stoke City´s Ricardo Fuller saw red after clashing with Andy Griffin in 2008.
Despite the setback, David Moyes´ team silenced the home crowd by taking the lead 16 minutes later when Dewsbury-Hall curled a stunning 18-meter strike into the far corner of the net.
After that it was all United. The home side had 25 shots on Jordan Pickford´s goal, compared to Everton´s three at the other end, but one goal was enough.
