Everton defender Seamus Coleman made his long-awaited return to action in the Under 23's Premier League Cup clash with Portsmouth.

The 29-year-old came through 58 minutes of the Goodison Park tie unscathed as he works his way back to full fitness.

Right back Coleman suffered a double leg fracture in the Republic of Ireland's goalless draw with Wales at the Aviva Stadium in March 2017 and only returned to training earlier this month.
