Everton put on a dominant display against Leeds to earn their first Premier League victory under manager Frank Lampard – ending a run of six league games without a win.

It means the Toffees are now five points clear of the relegation zone.

Captain Seamus Coleman was the unlikely scorer of the opener, tapping in a rebound from Donny van de Beek’s cross, before Michael Keane headed in another.

Anthony Gordon added a third in the second half as Everton wrapped up victory.

Everton, who had 21 shots on goal, looked lively with the return of Alex Iwobi and Dominic Calvert-Lewin in attack.

Van de Beek was handed a first Everton start and was heavily involved, particularly in the first half, as Leeds struggled to gain momentum.

Leeds rarely tested goalkeeper Jordan Pickford but Rodrigo almost produced two moments of magic when long-range efforts crashed off the crossbar in the first half.

In the end, it was comfortable for Everton, who move to within a point of 15th-placed Leeds after keeping a first clean sheet in 13 matches.
