Newcastle United ran riot again - this time at Goodison Park, although their first half performance was below par.
Even then Eddie Howe will argue his team went in 1-0 up at the break. But after the interval, the goals flowed from Callum Wilson who got his second. And Jacob Murphy and Joelinton also netted in the rout.

Nick Pope 8
Only beaten by a flukey corner in the second half. Made some key stops at key times.
Kieran Trippier 8
Battled on through the pain barrier after first half knock. Always looking to provide.
Fabian Schar 8
A nervy first half but recovered well in the second half to get back pinpoint passing. Only denied wonder goal due to an offside.
Sven Botman 8
Came through a tough assignment with some crunching tackles.
Matt Targett 7
An important 68 minutes under his belt. A big hand in the opener.
Sean Longstaff 7
Recovered from below par first half. Had a penalty shout but ended the night with an injury.
Bruno Guimaraes 8
Ran the show in the middle. Another not at his best first half but put on a bit of a master class after the break. Weighed in with an assist.
Joe Willock 8
He was fantastic after the interval. A lovely assist and run for Joelinton goal.
Joelinton 8
A fierce presence, great hold up play and a goal.
Miguel Almiron 6
Not his night in the final third in truth. But the playmaker is still feeling his way back after injury. Still managed some positive defensive contributions.
Callum Wilson 9
Got the party started with a crucial opener. Second half strike was a belter. Undisputed top scorer.
