Everton are off to a perfect start under Rafael Benitez as the Toffees came from behind to beat Southampton in front of a full-house Goodison Park.
Despite the fact that Benitez was not a popular choice among the fans, the former Liverpool boss received a warm reception before kick-off which led to a positive start.
Southampton opened the scoring in the first half through new signing Adam Armstrong who latched on to Che Adams’ ball to curl into the top corner.
However, the home side returned strongly in the second half, with Benitez’s decision to put Richarlison upfront paid off immediately.
