Manchester United defender Jonny Evans reveals that he is relieved to have scored his first goal for the club.

Jonny Evans has revealed his relief at breaking his goalscoring duck for Manchester United this afternoon.

The centre-back opened the scoring against Wolverhampton Wanderers, before United went on to wrap up a 5-0 success at Molineux.

Speaking after the match Evans insisted that the three points were more important than his goalscoring contribution.

"I've hit the woodwork and missed a few sitters but I've got it behind me now," said the the Northern Ireland international. "If I missed that one I don' think I would ever have scored!

"The main aim was to get three points and once we got the lead and they had a man sent off we were in control."

Evans made his United in September 2007.
