Jesse Lingard: 'Manchester United must build on derby win'

Manchester United winger Jesse Lingard urges his side to back up their derby victory over Manchester City with another win over Everton after the international break.

Manchester United winger Jesse Lingard has urged his side to build on their victory over Manchester City in Sunday's derby.

Marcus Rashford scored the only goal of the game after just 16 minutes to fire the Red Devils to all three points at the Etihad Stadium, closing the gap on their local rivals in the Champions League race.

United will resume domestic duties against Everton after the international break, and Lingard has already set his sights on backing up their derby victory with another triumph.

"It is a massive win. The lads put a lot of effort in, we pressed really well and kept the ball really well. To get the early goal was massive for us," he told the club's official website.

"The manager was buzzing. But obviously we know it is not like it is the last game of the season, we have to kick on now and focus on beating Everton.

"This is a major boost but we have got to take it game by game still. We have game plans for set teams and when we stick to them we usually win."

United are now just one point behind fourth-placed City in the Premier League table.
