Gary Lineker gives nine-word verdict on Everton’s victory over Crystal Palace

Gary Lineker hailed an ‘excellent’ Everton performance in their 3-0 defeat of Crystal Palace.

The Toffees were dominant at Goodison Park as they bounced back to winning ways in style after three successive defeats.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin opened the scoring in the 11th minute before there were goals from Anthony Gordon and Dwight McNeil in the second period.

And Lineker felt Everton were brilliant from the first to the final whistle.

The Match of the Day host wrote on Twitter: “From start to finish, @Everton have been excellent today.”
