Everton beat West Bromwich Albion quite handily, especially given their recent difficulties in breaking down the Baggies at Goodison Park.

Kevin Mirallas and Morgan Schneiderlin bagged goals close to halftime, and Romelu Lukaku then nailed it shut late in the game as West Brom didn’t really try to come back into it.

The Blues extended their lead over eight-placed West Brom to seven points. With it now looking likely that seventh spot might be enough to secure Europa League football next season, this win goes a long way towards ensuring that happens.
