The Nigeria international, Alex Iwobi, helped Everton take their first league win since September 1 with his contribution from the middle of the park.

Iwobi, who started the game at Goodison Park, made his seventh league appearance since his arrival from Arsenal in the summer and was on parade for 87 minutes.

A first-half goal from Bernard and a stoppage-time effort from Gylfi Sigurdsson – who replaced Iwobi – secured a crucial win for Everton, who last won a Premier League match on September 1 against Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The victory moved Everton out of the relegation zone to 12th in the league table with 10 points after nine games.
