Naismith was at it again soon after, with his shot deflected by Lukaku some ten yards out, but Lukasz Fabianski did well to get down low to gather cleanly. Gomis, though, scuffed his effort wide from 15 yards.Īt the other end, a fine Everton counter saw Arouna Kone find Lukaku, and when he teed up Steven Naismith the Scot was only denied by Neil Taylor's sliding challenge. The Swans took time to get going, but Bafe Gomis' acrobatic effort from a Kyle Naughton cross before the striker latched onto Gareth Barry's header before racing in on goal. The game saw a number of chances in the opening 20 minutes, with Everton enjoying the early attempts.Īfter a brief halt for clash of heads between Andre Ayew and Phil Jagielka, the visitors saw Romelu Lukaku's 20-yard free-kick bravely diverted wide for a corner by Ashley Williams, before the Everton captain headed over Ross Barkley's resulting delivery.
