Radamel Falcao: First Manchester United goal a "relief"

Manchester United's Radamel Falcao expresses his delight at having scored his first goal for the club.

Radamel Falcao has conceded that he is relieved to have scored his first goal in a Manchester United shirt.

The Colombian international, who joined the Red Devils on a season-long loan deal from Monaco in August, failed to find the net in his opening three Premier League matches.

However, he scored this afternoon at Old Trafford against Everton, which sealed a 2-1 victory for the home side.

"All strikers need goals, and for me there was a little bit of relief to score my first goal. I hope to score many in the future," he told MUTV.

"It was amazing that my first goal was at Old Trafford, I enjoyed it with all the fans and I want to say thank you to God, my teammates, all the staff and the coaches."

A deal is thought to have been recently struck for Falcao to join United permanently next summer.
