Aggie Beever-Jones hits Everton 'milestone' as Blues ready for Manchester United 'challenge'

Aggie Beever-Jones hit an Everton "milestone" on Wednesday after netting her first goal for the club in the Blues' Conti Cup shootout win against Aston Villa.

Everton came into the game looking to claim a second victory in just five days against the Villans, making eight changes from the side that triumphed in the West Midlands on Saturday afternoon. It was the vistors who had the better of the action in the first half, forcing Manchester United loanee Emily Ramsey into a point-blank save from Villa captain Rachel Corsie inside the first 15 minutes.

Carla Ward's side made their dominance count shortly after the restart, with Welsh international Natasha Harding slotting the ball past Ramsey on 48 minutes. The introduction of Manchester City loanee Jess Park proved the catalyst for an Everton fight-back; the 21-year-old feeding the ball into the path of Beever-Jones who rounded Anna Leat to net her first goal of the season.
