After winning two of their first three matches since Moyes' Merseyside return, the Toffees have sprung to life today in front of home support, opening the scoring against Ruud van Nistelrooy's Foxes and setting a league record for the quickest goal scored by a home side.

Not finished with setting records, Abdoulaye Doucouré's opener was also the fastest-ever goal by an Everton player.

Additionally, the Toffees have also scored more Premier League goals (14) in the opening minute of games than any other side according to Opta.

Beto would go on to double their advantage in the sixth minute to set them away in what looks to be their third win on the bounce under their returning managerial hero.

Safety under the Scotsman seems guaranteed.
