Everton deliver crushing Goodison Park win with 17-year-old scoring and injury boost

Everton earned a 6-0 victory over Motherwell in a behind-closed-doors friendly at Goodison Park.

The Toffees were rampant as Beto and Neal Maupay netted doubles against the Scottish Premiership visitors. New signing Jake O’Brien scored as second goal in two games, having netted on debut at Preston last weekend, while 17-year-old midfielder Harrison Armstrong also bagged.

There were maiden Goodison appearances for summer arrivals, O’Brien, Jesper Lindstrom and Iliman Ndiaye. Meanwhile, Seamus Coleman made a return from a minor knee injury after missing the Preston triumph.

Everton now prepare for their final friendly of the summer when they face AS Roma on Saturday (17.00 BST) before starting their Premier League season against Brighton at Goodison on August 17.
