Everton v Brighton: Five Things We Learned

Everton maintained their productive Goodison Park form with a convincing 2-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday.

Chris Hughton’s side came to Merseyside on the back of a five-game unbeaten Premier League run which had seen them climb into the top half of the table.

But Brighton were no match for a Toffees side which has now claimed 23 points from the past 30 available on its own ground.

Visiting defender Gaetan Bong steered in Yannick Bolasie’s inswinging cross under severe pressure from Theo Walcott to give Everton the lead their supremacy merited on the hour.
