David Moyes praises Tyrique George after Everton starlet rescues draw against Manchester United

Everton manager David Moyes has praised 20-year-old Tyrique George after the young forward produced a stunning equaliser in the Toffees’ dramatic 2-2 draw against Manchester United.

George came off the bench and made an immediate impact at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, scoring a spectacular goal to bring Everton level and earning the Man of the Match award.

The Anglo-Nigerian forward’s performance has also renewed attention on his international future, with the youngster eligible to represent both England and Nigeria.

Tyrique George produces a stunning equaliser

Manchester United took the lead shortly after half-time when Bryan Mbeumo scored in the 47th minute.

Everton struggled to find a response until George stepped up in the 83rd minute.

The 20-year-old received the ball from substitute Hayden Hackney before cutting inside and unleashing a powerful strike that flew into the top corner past United goalkeeper Senne Lammens.

The goal not only brought Everton back into the game but also earned George the official Man of the Match award.

Moyes was impressed by the youngster’s contribution and his versatility across the attack.

“Tyrique scored a great goal as well, he’s done very well, both on the left and the right,” Moyes said after the game.

“Let’s hope that he picks it up, he’s still a young boy learning his trade in the Premier League.”

Everton and Manchester United produce dramatic finale

George’s equaliser set up a frantic finish at the Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Manchester United appeared to have secured all three points when Benjamin Sesko headed Luke Shaw’s cross into the net in the 88th minute to make it 2-1.

But Everton refused to give up.

Deep into stoppage time, Ainsley Maitland-Niles produced another stunning moment when he struck a first-time volley in the 96th minute to rescue a point for Moyes’ side.

The late equaliser completed an extraordinary 2-2 draw and ensured both teams left with a share of the points.

Tyrique George’s Nigeria eligibility adds another layer

While Everton will be delighted with George’s contribution, his impressive performance could also attract attention from Nigeria.

The young forward has represented England at youth level and remains eligible to play for the Super Eagles through his Nigerian heritage.

His ability to operate on either flank, combined with his growing experience in the Premier League, could make him an interesting player to watch as his career develops.

For now, George’s immediate focus will be on establishing himself at Everton, but his performance against Manchester United has given supporters plenty of reasons to be excited about what could come next.
