EPL: Everton Cruise Past Fulham 3-2, Dominic Hits Brace

EPL: Everton Cruise Past Fulham 3-2, Dominic Hits Brace

Everscoring Everton striker, Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored a brace, and midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure scored his first goal for the club as the Toffees beat Fulham 3-2 to return to winning ways in the Premier League on Sunday.

AllNews understands that Everton is now off the top of the table after 3 losses but a win at Craven Cottage puts them 4 points from the top of the EPL table.

Brazilian forward Richarlison, returning from a three-match ban, picked up a loose ball and ran wide to cross for Calvert-Lewin who tapped in his ninth league goal of the campaign 42 seconds into the contest.

Fulham hit back through Bobby De Cordova-Reid's neat finish on 15 minutes but Everton continued to threaten and was unlucky not to go ahead 2-1 as Calvert-Lewin's effort was chalked off for offside and Richarlison's low shot was pushed away.

The visitors carved Fulham open again as Alex Iwobi switched play from the right and James Rodriguez fed Lucas Digne, who produced the first-time ball for Calvert-Lewin to stroke in and top the season's scoring charts.

Digne looked lively in an advanced role and was involved in Everton's third, firing in a cross for Doucoure to head home in the 35th minute and open his Toffees account after joining from Watford in the close season.

Fulham pulled one back shortly after Ivan Cavaleiro slipped and missed a penalty for them in the second half, as substitute Ruben Loftus-Cheek found the net via a deflection off Everton defender Yerry Mina to ensure a tight finish.
