Amadou Onana has shared a photo of the nasty eye injury he suffered in Everton's victory over Brentford.

The Blues moved out of the Premier League relegation zone with a 1-0 defeat of Thomas Frank's side at Goodison Park. Dwight McNeil's strike after just 35 seconds proved the difference.

Onana required treatment in the first half after clashing heads with team-mate James Tarkowski. The midfielder continued before being subbed in the 79th minute.

After the win, Onana posed for a picture with Idrissa Gana Gueye in the Toffees dressing room - showing that his right eye had closed over. The Belgium international posted on Instagram: "Looks pretty good ya know."

Everton return to action when they travel to Chelsea on Saturday.
