Visitors enjoy stunning 5-1 win at Amex Stadium
Result lifts Everton out of the relegation zone

Sean Dyche urged Everton to take the final three steps to Premier League survival after his side gave their prospects a huge shot in the arm with an unlikely 5-1 win at Brighton.

Everton had been winless in 13 away games but were brilliant at the Amex Stadium, scoring three first‑half goals without reply and weathering a recovery from their hosts to add another two through Dwight McNeil. They ended the day two points clear of the relegation zone and can smell a second dramatic escape in as many seasons.
