Romelu Lukaku scored a first half double as Everton eased to an impressive 3-0 away win at Southampton.
The Belgian opened the scoring halfway through the first half with an emphatic header from Arouna Kone’s pinpoint cross, finishing off a swift counter-attack.
Lukaku drilled in a second on the stroke of halftime, moments after a key Tim Howard save, to leave Southampton facing an uphill task.
Graziano Pelle was guilty of several big misses and Everton’s Ross Barkley, impressive throughout, capped a fine personal performance with a well-taken third.
