Alex Iwobi was in action for 90 minutes as Everton secured a hard-fought 3-2 away win against Fulham at the Craven Cottage yesterday afternoon.
His international teammate Ola Aina also featured for Fulham in the game along with Nigerian-born stars Tosin Adarabioyo and Ademola Lookman.
The trio all played for 90 minutes in the highly entertaining encounter.
England international Dominic Calvert-Lewin bundled Everton in front inside 42 seconds.
Bobby Decordova-Reid hauled Fulham level on the quarter-hour.
Iwobi was instrumental to Everton’s second goal of the game as he made his way down the right before James Rodriguez and Lucas Digne combined to set up Calvert-Lewin.
Abdoulaye Doucoure’s first Everton goal opened up a two-goal cushion at the break for the Toffees.
Fulham were much improved in the second half with substitute Ruben Loftus-Cheek reducing the arrears seconds after Ivan Cavaleiro had deepened the hosts’ penalty woes with a shanked spot-kick over the bar.
