Everton put a real spanner in Manchester City’s Premier League title challenge as they thrashed Pep Guardiola’s side 4-0 at Goodison Park on Sunday afternoon.
Romelu Lukaku’s first-half effort had given Ronald Koeman’s side the lead, before Kevin Mirallas doubled the advantage shortly after the break with a neat finish into the corner.
As City threw bodies forward in an effort to get back into the match, 18-year-old Tom Davies broke free, getting a return ball and smartly lifting the ball over Bravo.
Everton’s January signing from Charlton, Ademola Lookman, then finished off the rout with his first touch at Goodison Park to complete Pep Guardiola’s miserable afternoon on Merseyside.
The result sees Everton go four points clear of West Brom in 7th, whilst Manchester City lose the chance to go level on points with Tottenham in second place, now sitting ten points behind Chelsea.
Here’s how Ronald Koeman’s side rated during their emphatic victory.
Joel Robles – Impressed in the Everton goal today, rushing out of his goal twice in the first-half to deny Sterling and Silva one-on-one and saving well down low from Aguero later in the match. Had a quieter afternoon than he might have expected against a Manchester City side who scored five in their last away outing, but deserved his clean sheet. 7.
