Ademola Lookman scored twice in Everton’s 3-0 victory over Apollon Limassol.

Martin Keown has told BT Sport, during their coverage of Everton’s match against Apollon Limassol in the Europa League, that Ademola Lookman’s game may currently be too complicated for Sam Allardyce.

Lookman scored twice as Everton won 3-0 in Cyprus last night, despite putting out a very youthful line-up.

The youngster first finished from close range, before he blasted in his second of the match from distance.

Lookman’s display earned a lot of credit from Everton supporters, but Keown still thinks that Allardyce will want to work with the attacker in training.

“I think he can simplify his game,” Keown said. “Sam will be wanting to get into him. But there’s moments of brilliance from him.”

Everton’s win over Limassol was their first of the season in the Europa League group stage.

The Toffees have been in abject form in European football, but did manage to avoid finishing bottom of the group, by picking up the three points yesterday.

Everton rested many of their key players, but the youngsters starred as the Merseyside outfit cruised to victory.

Everton’s attention now will turn to the Merseyside derby, with a match against Liverpool next up. Lookman is likely to be a substitute for Sunday’s game.
