Nigeria Target Lookman Shows His Class For Everton With England Coach In Attendance
Published: January 13, 2019Everton have moved up to tenth place in the English Premier League following their 2-0 victory over Bournemouth at Goodison Park on Sunday afternoon.
England U21 star Ademola Lookman made only his second start of the season for the Toffees, while Jordon Ibe entered into the pitch as a substitute on 83 minutes.
Bernard was presented with an opportunity to open the scoring in the 31st minute after Lookman was released down the right flank and crossed for the number 20 but he headed over the crossbar.
And three minutes later, the Nigerian winger, who was the star man for Everton in the first half, couldn't turn home following a swift counter attack.
Chelsea loanee Kurt Zouma headed the home team into a 1-0 lead on 61 minutes, assisted by Digne.
Substitute Dominic Calvert-Lewin sealed the three points for the hosts in the fifth minute of stoppage time after he was picked out by Lookman.
England manager Gareth Southgate was among the spectators that watched today's game at Goodison Park.
