Duncan Ferguson took charge of his first match at Goodison Park and his presence made the difference as his side were victorious over Frank Lampard’s young Blues.

A brace from Dominic Calvert-Lewin and a goal from Richarlison was enough to get the Toffees’ first win at home in the Premier League since October.
The victory brought belief back to the team and the fans this season after a tough start to the new campaign and this impressive stat from 5 Live illustrated that.
Stat on @5liveSport just now: Everton made 37 tackles in that game, the most of any Premier League side this season and the most of any Everton team this decade. #EFC

If there’s one thing Ferguson was always going to do it was get his side fighting for the badge, and they quite literally did at times.
Supporters were jubilant with the side’s achievements after the change in attitude instilled from the gaffer, making their feelings clear on social media.
