Aston Villa 2-1 Everton: Iwobi Unable to make the difference as Onana debut costly

Alex Iwobi’s pressure on Aston Villa’s defence was not enough to help Everton come back from a 2-0 goal deficit as new boy Amadou Onana had a moment to forget with a mistake that led to a goal against The Villans on Saturday.

The former Lille youngster, who only completed his move officially on Wednesday, was left on the bench against Villa as manager Frank Lampard plumped for Alex Iwobi and Abdoulaye Doucoure in midfield.

It was evident that the youngster was not up to speed when Doucoure came off injured in the first half, only to be replaced by Tom Davies.

The 20-year-old, who cost Everton £33.5million, emerged from the bench in the 81st minute and was immediately thrust into the action.

Everton struggled to create anything in the first half but showed more intent after the break, particularly in the game’s dying minutes after Onana gave fans hope.

The Toffees only narrowly avoided relegation last term and were beaten 1-0 by Chelsea last weekend.
