Manchester United has set yet another Premier League record in Sunday's draw versus Everton. The Red Devils came from a goal down to share spoils with the hosts thanks to Bruno Fernandes' first half-strike.
The Portuguese midfielder bagged a sublime finish in the 31st minute after Dominic Calvert-Lewin had capitalized on an error by David de Gea to fire Everton in front. In essence, the former Sporting skipper extended his scoring run to three goals in three games following his move to Old Trafford in January.

In terms of a broader significance of Bruno Fernandes' strike, it sealed Manchester United's fate of becoming the first club in the history of the Premier League to score 900 away goals. Arsenal's two goals in the 2-2 draw at Chelsea back in February fired it to 800 away goals whereas the Blues themselves come in third with 774 goals respectively. Liverpool (774) and Tottenaham Hotspur (680) completes the top five.
