Everton midfielder, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Pienaar-c34208 has revealed he will go into the next game with far less pressure, after scoring his first goal of the season against Aston Villa on Saturday.

Pienaar – signed by http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019 on a permanent deal this summer – earlier spent a successful six-month loan spell at Goodison Park last season, which saw him score 4 goals in 14 appearances.
After bagging his first scalp for the term, the 30-year old let out his satisfaction on getting off the mark, and mentioned that he will now be able to play without any considerable pressure.
While talking to reporters, he said: “I’m happy to break the duck so early in the season. You don’t want to go too long without scoring. Hopefully I can play with a little less pressure now that the first one is out of the way.”
The midfielder then underlined the importance of their win against Villa. He explained it was pertinent on their part that they followed up the victory over the Red Devils in the opener with another strong performance, if they are to stand any chance of
upstaging the top-four.
Everton will go into their next league game against West Bromwich Albion on the 1st of September at the Hawthorns. Currently, the men in blue are riding on an eleven-match unbeaten streak in league matches.
Pienaar expressed his contentment on seeing his side overcome their hoodoo of being the slow starters, and felt that they can use it to their advantage to go on and do wonders this season.
“We finished really strong last season, but now it is time for us to be strong from beginning to end. We mustn’t get carried away, it is only two games, but if we continue our good form then who knows what the future will bring for us.”
