Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall really stepped up in the second-half, first getting Everton back on level terms before forcing an own goal from Bernd Leno.
Everton now sit eighth, and have a genuine shot at sealing qualification for a European competition next season.
What will be extremely key for the Toffees though is to be strong at home – something Everton have not been recently.

The Bournemouth Echo have covered his press conference this morning, with Iraola saying: “Everton have a good squad and Moyes is a great manager. He has shown it again this season and they are in a good run of results. It’s going to be challenging with two away games in a row.
“Everton are an uncomfortable team to play against. It’s unlikely they’ll have the same starting XI to the game against Villa after such a big effort and they are focusing on recovery today.”

Everton have had the jitters at home recently and Moyes could really do with his side winning this game so that this doesn’t become something of a psychological hurdle.
Bournemouth have had Everton’s number fairly often in recent years. But the squad Moyes has is more than capable of squashing the Cherries tomorrow night.
