Manchester United midfielder Paul Pogba revealed his delight after Monday's 2-0 victory over Everton saw the Red Devils return to winning ways in the Premier League.
United entered the clash with the Toffees off the back of three successive league draws, which had seen them drop further behind runaway leaders Manchester City.
Second-half goals from Anthony Martial and Jesse Lingard, however, proved enough for the 20-time English champions to start 2018 in a positive fashion.
Pogba again captained the Red Devils in the absence of Michael Carrick and Antonio Valencia, and the Frenchman has said that his team 'always believed' that they could claim all the points.
"It's the first game of the year. It was a good win. We played with aggression but a positive way. We knew we could score going in at half-time. We believed in it. We just had to work hard," Pogba told Sky Sports News.
Next up for United is a home game against Championship side Derby County in the third round of the FA Cup on Friday night.
