Nigerian born winger Ademola Lookman was impressive despite Everton’s 3-1 loss to Manchester City in the English Premier League on Saturday.
The explosive lad who is touted for a call up to the Super Eagles squad made a substitute appearance in the game at the Etihad.
He was involved in the Tofees’ only goal following a sharp run at the left hand side of attack.
Lookman climbed off the bench in the 57th minute as ye replaced Bernard.
Richarlison missed a fine opportunity to put Everton ahead when he arrived unmarked at the far post but volleyed Bernard’s cross high and wide, failing to apply the spectacular finish he intended.
The Toffees were shaping up to give City a tough game only to concede a sloppy opener, Yerry Mina’s clearance leading to Leroy Sane playing in Gabriel Jesus, who guided the ball under the body of the advancing Jordan Pickford.
Pickford made a superb save from Riyad Mahrez at close range before the break but could do little with City’s second goal five minutes into the second half, Jesus meeting Sane’s curling ball with a clinical header that flashed beyond the England goalkeeper.
There was a mix-up in the City defence when Lucas Digne’s looping cross was headed down into the net by Calvert-Lewin via a deflection off Fabian Delph, but Sterling quickly dismissed any ideas of a comeback.
Less than four minutes after replacing the disgruntled Sane, the forward ghosted into the six-yard box to head home Fernandinho’s cross from City’s left flank.
