Everton fans on Twitter didn’t have much to be happy about after their 3-1 defeat at home to West Ham on Sunday, but some at least did find solace in the wonderful header scored by Gylfi Sigurdsson on the stroke of half-time.

However, when young right-back Jonjo Kenny swung in a cross after two minutes of added time in the first half Sigurdsson was there to power home a header from beyond the penalty spot past the helpless Lukasz Fabianski in the Hammers net.
