Norwich City went close to adding to Manchester United's woes at Old Trafford but a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick saw them fall to a 3-2 defeat.
Dean Smith's men found themselves 2-0 down on the cusp of half-time before Kieran Dowell's header put them back in the contest.
Teemu Pukki netted his 10th goal of the season just after half-time, becoming the first Norwich player since the Premier League formed to net score double figures in successive top-flight seasons.
Ronaldo's free-kick was enough to edge a victory for Ralf Rangnick's side, who kept their hopes of a top four finish alive with the win.
City remain seven points behind Everton in 17th and the Toffees now have a chance to extend that gap against Leicester in midweek.
The Canaries host Newcastle United next weekend at Carrow Road.
