Gylfi Sigurdsson scored twice as Everton ended a run of three successive Premier League defeats with victory at relegation-threatened Cardiff.
Former Swansea midfielder Sigurdsson stroked home the first after timing his run into the box perfectly to meet Seamus Coleman’s cutback from the right.
The Icelandic playmaker thumped in his and Everton’s second after a fine run from substitute Bernard, a rare moment of quality in a scrappy encounter.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin added a third late on with a neat finish from Idrissa Gueye’s pass, ensuring a victory which moves Everton up to ninth in the table before Sunday’s Merseyside derby against Liverpool at Goodison Park.
For Cardiff, a second home defeat in four days leaves them one place and one point above the bottom three. (BBC)
