Coleman helps Toffees out of a sticky situation

THE manner of Everton’s FA Cup win over brave Carlisle was not what returning captain Phil Neville wanted, but the end product was spot on.

A flattering 3-1 scoreline in yesterday’s third-round tie at Goodison Park secured victory for the Toffees over a League One side who deserved a replay for their efforts.

Neville singled out Donegal-born Seamus Coleman for special praise, claiming the former Sligo Rovers defender “ignited” the home side when introduced late in the game.
