Remember on Saturday, September 29th, 2018, Everton defeated Fulham 3-0 again.
Speaking to newsmen, Everton manager Marco Silva says he made his feelings clear in the dressing room at half-time before his side scored three second-half goals against Fulham to record their second Premier League win of the season.
After a poor first-half Toffees display, Gylfi Sigurdsson made amends for a missed penalty with a brace that helped Everton record their first win since August and inflict a fourth defeat of the season on Fulham.
Sigurdsson wasted a big chance for Silva’s side early in the second half when he hit the crossbar from the spot, but atoned shortly after with a crisp left-footed strike from the edge of the box.
Substitute Cenk Tosun doubled the Toffees’ lead 10 minutes later with an easy header at the far post from a smart Theo Walcott cross before Sigurdsson added a third in the 89th minute.
“I told the boys what my feelings were in the dressing room,” Silva said.
“We have have to take different decisions and be a little bit more calm when we have the ball, and when we are attacking. It was an important result for us but it was only three points, and now we must start preparing for the next game in the normal way.”
Fulham have never won at Goodison Park in the league, losing 23 – the last 22 in a row – and drawing the other four matches.
Slavisa Jokanovic’s side sit three points above the bottom three in 16th with just one Premier League win this season, while Everton are 11th.
