An inspired substitution and touches of ingenuity by Ross Barkley and Romelu Lukaku especially created the opening for Enner Valencia to score his first Everton goal as the Toffees saw off Southampton at Goodison Park.
Barkley played a fine through ball to Lukaku who showed great awareness to spin and spread the ball wide to the right to Coleman. The Ireland international captain’s cross was perfect for the Belgian whose header drew a great save from Forster, but Lukaku was first to the rebound to clip the ball into Valencia’s path and the Ecuadorian international buried his shot for his first goal for the club, 12 minutes after Ronald Koeman brought him on in place of Aaron Lennon.
