Frank Lampard has praised Scott Brown's Fleetwood Town side following Everton's second round Carabao Cup success over the English League outfit.
The Toffees went into the clash as favourites to progress and they narrowly defeated the Celtic hero and his troops with Demarai Gray the matchwinner in the 28th minute. Lampard has described the victory over The Cod Army as a 'test of character' as he hailed Fleetwood as a 'physical' team and a good challenge for his men.
Speaking about the match, he told Everton's official website: “There are parts of the performance I liked. We can improve. I wanted a bit more intensity off the ball at times. And the quality of our play, moments when we can make a killer pass and take control of the game, I thought we were a little bit loose at times. It was a test of character and a test of quality.
