Everton’s Under-23 showed a lot of promise last season, and despite losing a half dozen players or so to loans this season, the incoming players have meshed in quite well. With David Unsworth leading the way, the Under-23s are rounding into form as they look to defend their Premier League 2 title. After beating Chelsea last time around, they beat Tottenham Hotspur youngsters 4-1 today at Goodison Park, with a brace from Oumar Niasse leading the way. Unsworth named some seniors in his squad, with Joel Robles, Ademola Lookman and Oumar Niasse starting the game. And within minutes the home side were ahead, with Niasse heading home from a Jonjoe Kenny cross. The remainder of the half went back and forth as the two teams traded some chances, but the game kicked up a level in the second half. Just after the break, Spurs captain Joe Pritchard had a deflected shot go past Joel to tie the game.
