Everton beat Brighton and Hove Albion 3-1 on Saturday.

Everton coasted to a 3-1 win over Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday afternoon, making it four wins in the last five Premier League games.

The Toffees saw a three-game winning run come to an end at Manchester United last weekend, and Marco Silva will have been desperate for a positive response back at Goodison Park.

He saw his side take the lead as a flowing counter-attack saw Gylfi Sigurdsson pick out Richarlison to smash home a superb opener, before Lewis Dunk headed in an equaliser for the Seagulls from Solly March’s cross.

Seamus Coleman drove Everton back in front with his first goal in more than 18 months, and Richarlison pounced on a loose pass from Dunk to nip past Shane Duffy and go around goalkeeper Mat Ryan before sliding the ball into the empty net.

That run of four wins in the last five is hugely impressive for Everton, and whilst Richarlison will attract all the headlines, another summer signing impressed in the win.

Left back Lucas Digne was a constant source of attacking threat down the left flank, with the former Barcelona man continuing to impress in an Everton shirt.

After the game, Digne took to Twitter to send a message to the fans, and called the supporters at Goodison Park ‘amazing’ as they roared Everton onto another fine win.
