West Brom 0 - Everton 2: Lukaku and Mirallas strikes leave Baggies in sticky situation
EVERTON earned their first win of the season and resigned Alan Irvine's West Brom to their second successive defeat after running-out 2-0 winners at the Hawthorns.
Romelu Lukaku put the visitors ahead after just two minutes but respectfully refused to celebrate in front of his former employers.
Steven Naismith had a golden opportunity to put Everton out of sight early in the second half but failed to hit the target.
The Baggies had a fair amount of possession for long periods of the game but failed to create any noteworthy chances, registering just one shot on target.
Kevin Mirallas doubled the Toffees' lead in the 66th with a somewhat fortuitous goal.
Ben Foster failed to gather the Belgian's tame low drive, and the ball simply passed through his body and into the back of the net.
