Frank Lampard says Everton's win over Brentford, Evergreen.

Everton beat fellow Premier League side Brentford 4-1 at Goodison Park in the FA Cup fourth round on Saturday; goals from Yerry Mina, Richarlison, Mason Holgate and Andros Townsend gave Frank Lampard debut win as Toffees manager; Thomas Frank bemoans Brentford's set-piece defending

New Everton manager Frank Lampard admits he had a day he will never forget after opening his Goodison Park reign with a 4-1 FA Cup fourth-round victory over Premier League rivals Brentford.

Goals from Yerry Mina, Richarlison, Mason Holgate and Andros Townsend - after Ivan Toney's penalty had briefly made it 2-1 - secured the biggest win on debut by any Toffees boss.

It was the team's largest victory against top-flight opposition since beating West Ham by the same scoreline in the Carabao Cup in September 2020 and had supporters singing "Super Frankie Lampard" in the second half and at the final whistle.

"I can only thank the fans for their support of me from the moment I walked out and of course at the end, seeing the team perform the way it did," said the former Chelsea boss.

"It's a day I'll never forget, it was very special, and I can't help but get caught up in the emotion of that for the moment.

"We all hear about the Goodison effect and I've felt it on the other side and we wanted to produce that today and the players did.

"But as much as I was proud of the performance and it gets me excited, I have to calm down now and work towards the league games."
