The match between Everton and Manchester United was marked by the sanction imposed on the Liverpool team during the last international break that condemned them to penultimate place in the table. Up to ten points were taken from the club in the blue part of Liverpool for, according to the institutions, failing to comply with the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules.

Everton fans knew that the duel was a great stage to protest against what for them is an absolute injustice. Multiple posters and banners were proudly displayed alongside the corrupt signs around Goodison Park. Fans expressed their frustration with the Premier League as a banner reads, Where there is power, greed and money, there is corruption.

A large group of supporters gathered outside The Brick pub, near Goodison Park, before kick-off and embarked on a protest march along County Road and Spellow Lane to the stadium.

It should be noted that in the duel between Manchester City and Liverpool, which ended in a 1-1 draw, Everton fans hired a small plane to fly over the Etihad Stadium with the Premier League = corruption banner, in protest of the 10-point sanction that the Toffees have received.

Plane to protest against the Premier League

The Premier League sanctioned Everton with ten points for financial irregularities, a punishment that unleashed fury among The Toffees fans, as they considered it unfair while Manchester City, which has received several accusations so far, remains unpunished. The Everton fan group, 1878, was the one that published videos and photographs of the plane with the banner, since what happened was not observed during the broadcast of the game between Manchester City and Liverpool.
