Thierno Barry scored his first goal for the club after 737 minutes, complementing an early own goal to seal a 3-0 victory for David Moyes’ Everton against Nottingham Forest, moving the Toffees closer to the European places.
Everton moved within a point of the top four after securing a commanding 3-0 victory over Nottingham Forest, a result that saw manager David Moyes defeat his predecessor, Sean Dyche.
The scoring opened early with an 82-second own goal from Forest’s Nikola Milenkovic.
The match highlight, however, was Thierno Barry finally scoring his debut goal after 17 appearances, a crucial moment for the young striker.
The 23-year-old French forward, who had endured a 737-minute Premier League goal drought, finished a quick counter-attack in added time, sparking an immense celebration.
Iliman Ndiaye unselfishly teed him up on the break. This fourth win in five games marks a remarkable achievement for Moyes, as Everton continues its impressive run despite suffering from injury and suspension issues in midfield.
