Everton had lost just two of their previous 17 Premier League away games, however they were indebted to Begovic after six minutes. Douglas Luiz’s corner was met by Tyrone Mings at the near post only for the former Bournemouth goalkeeper to adjust his feet and make a sublime one-handed reflex save.
With former Birmingham winger Gray jeered throughout, Everton always looked dangerous on the counter-attack and Rondon was inches away from being found at the far post from the in-form winger’s inviting cross. Both sides sought to wrestle the initiative upon the restart yet it wasn’t until after Bailey replaced Targett on the hour-mark that the second period came alive.
It proved a turning point as a minute later, Villa found the opener. With Digne switching off, Cash peeled off the Everton full-back to take Luiz’s pass, push the ball onto his left foot and steer his shot beyond Begovic high into the net.
