Jack Grealish did not miss his first League Everton debut. Lighthouse recruit of the Toffees to the offseason thanks to a loan authorized by Manchester City, the English attacking midfielder was decisive during the victory (2-0) against Brighton. Entered the end of the match on the weekend spent in Leeds (1-0), the British international was able to start the meeting this time, which was also the first for Everton in his brand new stadium by Hill Dickinson.
Grealish did not score, but he simply delivered the two goals of the meeting to his partners. The first on a perfect center from the left for the former Marseillais Iliman N'Diaye (1-0, 23rd), the second by shifting James Garner for an overpowered strike from the outside of the surface (2-0).
A standing ovation!
The new number 18 of the Toffees was released in additional time, replaced by the young Armstrong. The public of Everton has reserved a good ovation for him and fed applause. The beginning of a very nice relationship, no doubt!
At the same time, Crystal Palace and Nottingham Forrest could not decide (1-1) while Manchester United travels to Fulham for the last Sunday match of this 2nd day of the Premier League.
