Everton scored four goals in their third successive league game, as they dispatched Fulham 4-0 in a Premier League match on Saturday.
The Toffees in-form striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tim-Cahill-c35085 also got on the score sheet, to help the Merseyside team protect their seventh place in the league table.
The win also stretched their unbeaten run in the league to six games now, having won four games during this period.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Tony-Hibbert-c35447, I thought there was a lot of really good performances there and I was able to enjoy the game because the players have got a couple of
goals up and we’re playing in a good style.”
Everton went into the game fresh from their sensational 4-4 draw against the league leaders, Manchester United. On the other hand, Fulham arrived at Goodison Park in a bid to end their sequence of 19 top-flight games without a win at the stadium.
The hosts started the match brightly and won a penalty kick just after seven minutes of play, after a free-kick from Jelavic caught the elbow of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Pavel-Pogrebnyak-c29501. The maverick striker converted from the spot-kick to put his side ahead.
The Croatian footballer then had the opportunity to double his match tally, after he collected a long ball from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/John-Heitinga-c18862, but failed to find the target with his effort.
However, the home side got their second goal through Fellaini only a minute later. http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Pienaar-c34208 took an out-swinging corner from the right by-line and the Belgian footballer went high in the air to nod-in a free header.
After assuming the two goal advantage, the Toffees started to play more fluently and kept on flirting with the ball, outside the Fulham box.
Their aggressive game plan bore more fruit for them in the 39th minute, as Jelavic inflicted further damage on the visiting team by grabbing his second goal.
Pienaar played a fabulous through-ball to the Croat, whose heavy first touch forced him wide towards the left. However, he recovered well and fired a low shot from an acute angle, which went in between the legs of Mark Schwarzer to the back of the net.
The Whites took over the field in the second half deflated and out of purpose, as the hosts continued from where they left off in the first half.
Pienaar provided a brilliant looping pass to Fellaini after playing quick passing football with his team-mates at the edge of the box, only to see the Belgian footballer beat the charging goalkeeper with his wonderful first-touch effort, to extend the Toffees
lead to four goals.
A couple of good saves from Schwarzer in the closing stages of the game, proved nothing more than damage-control, as http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Moyes’ side bagged a comprehensive 4-0 win to stay at the seventh place in the table.
