West Brom 1 Everton 2: Barry header seals Koeman's first victory

Gareth Barry's header earned Everton's first victory of the Premier League campaign as they came from a goal down to beat West Brom 2-1.

Ronald Koeman secured his first victory as Everton manager as his side came from a goal behind to claim a 2-1 Premier League victory over West Brom at the Hawthorns.

Everton had to come from two goals down to win 3-2 in the corresponding fixture last season, and they were made to fight for the points once again on Saturday.

The visitors found themselves behind early on thanks to a Gareth McAuley header, with Kevin Mirallas restoring parity just prior to the interval.
