Everton got back to winning ways against Cardiff.
Everton have had a fortnight to reflect on a poor start to 2019.
Their hard work on the training ground paid off with a 3-0 victory over Cardiff City.
Gylfi Sigurdsson scored twice before Dominic Calvert-Lewin rounded off the win.
Perhaps even more pleasing than the goals was the clean sheet.
Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford was particularly happy after the victory.
The England international goalkeeper sent a message out on Twitter after the win.
Pickford was helped by a strong performance from returning centre-back Phil Jagielka.
This was the ideal preparation for the Toffees ahead of Sunday’s derby with Liverpool, lifting the confidence of all concerned.
