The excellence of midfielder Jonny Evans helped Man Utd escape a visible loss to Aston Villa.

Jonny Evans is only a temporary solution for Man Utd this season.

Injuries to several key players have made this 35-year-old veteran trusted alongside Raphael Varane.

Man Utd had an unhappy start, losing 0-2 after just 26 minutes.

However, Evans is still the most stable player in the Red Devils’ 4-man defense. Statistics show that he wins 100% of aerial duels. In addition, this midfielder also had 4 successful passes and blocked the opponent’s shots 3 times.

.

The most impressive was the ball in the 72nd minute when Man Utd would have lost the third goal if not for Evans’ excellence.

That was the phase where Man Utd’s defense forgot John McGinn and let the midfielder comfortably shoot at very close range.

.

However, somehow, Evans was right in front of the goal line to miraculously block John McGinn’s shot.

Obviously, Andre Onana was helpless in this situation and in a miraculous way Man Utd escaped defeat.

Driven, Man Utd made a comeback in the latter minutes of the game and Rasmus Hojlund’s goal secured the win. This is the Premier League rookie’s first goal ever.

Evans is playing that good at the age of 35, it’s unbelievable.

The seasoned center back was excellent, keeping Ollie Watkins quiet and, crucially, stopping Alejandro Garnacho’s second goal with a block.

Evans is earning a lot of praise for his efforts on Twitter, and here is how fans reacted to his performance.

The person said: “Jonny Evans has been a brilliant signing, absolutely vital tonight.”

Another one: “The amount of people sleeping on this Jonny Evans is so insane man Deserves his flowers, he has been amazing.”

The third express: “Been great when we needed him. His presence in the dressing room when Licha comes back will he good for the young lads.”

Another fan proud: “Probably won’t get talked about enough, but what a block this was from Jonny Evans. We wouldn’t have won the game if this had gone in. Massive moment from him.”
