FOOTBALL – Everton produced an impressive second-half comeback to defeat Coventry City 3-1 in the Premier League early this morning.
After a goalless first half, Coventry took the lead through Gnantin Yann-Alexandre Gboho in the 52nd minute.
Everton, however, responded emphatically, with Thierno Barry scoring twice in quick succession in the 56th and 61st minutes to turn the match around.
Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall then extended the hosts’ advantage with an 81st-minute strike, sealing a deserved victory.
Everton’s clinical finishing after the break proved decisive, leaving Coventry with little opportunity to recover.
