Everton pushed travelers Stoke City back into the drop zone with a 3-1 success while Fulham claimed a first triumph away this season after beating Bolton 3-1.
Stoke City's Tomas Sorensen (R) punches the ball away from Everton's Joleon Lescott (C) during their English Premier League soccer match in Liverpool March 14, 2009.
Relegation battle remains tight and tense. Portsmouth were forced to settle for a point against 10-man Middlesbrough at the Riverside after conceding a last-gasp leveler; Hull City Newcastle were similarly tied 1-1, which did little for either side's hopes of avoiding being sucked into the bottom three; and Sunderland slipped back towards the wrong end of the table after going down 2- 1 at home to Wigan. United took the lead after 23 minutes through a Ronaldo penalty after Liverpool's keeper Pepe Reina unnecessarily brought down Park Ji-Sung when there appeared to be no imminent danger.
Nemanja Vidic's dismal defending allowed Fernando Torres to equalize soon and the visitors were suddenly 2-1 up a minute before the interval when Steven Gerrard scored from the spot after being upended by Patrice Evra.
Vidic's day got even worse as he was sent off for fouling Gerrard 15 minutes from time and Fabio Aurelio brilliantly curled home the resulting free-kick from 25 yards.
United's torment stretched into stoppage time when Liverpool substitute Andrea Dossena added a late fourth.
