During the Premier League encounter between Everton and Manchester United on September 6, 2026, the Toffees missed a significant opportunity just before the break. Thierno Barry, playing for Everton, had a clear chance to take the lead in the 43rd minute but his header sailed over the crossbar.
The miss left the scoreline at 0-0 as the teams headed into the locker rooms at half-time. The incident was highlighted by Sky Sports as a major chance for the home side that could have changed the momentum of the match.
I thought he was offside? The ref didn’t flag it though. Maybe VAR review needed.
Zero changes at the break then. United must be relieved to avoid the blow.
Does this happen often to him? Misses the target from two yards out. Typical.
What a letdown for Barry! He looked certain to head that in. Everton really missed out there.
