Everton come in from the cold with Crystal Palace win

Crystal Palace 0 Everton 1: It has been a long and often unforgiving winter for Roberto Martinez.

But, at sub-zero Selhurst Park on Saturday, his Everton side finally showed signs of a thaw and perhaps even the odd green shoot of recovery.

The Spaniard and his squad arrived in south London having won only once in their previous 13 games, a run that began in November.
