Dwight McNeil has posted a heartfelt message on social media after his first Everton goal sealed a 2-1 victory at Southampton.
The Everton winger completed a quick-fire comeback at St. Mary's yesterday, picking up a loose ball inside the box before smashing the ball past Saints goalkeeper Gavin Bazunu. McNeil's goal came just two minutes after Conor Coady's close-range finish and five after Joe Aribo opened the scoring for the home side.
As well as giving Frank Lampard his second win of the season, McNeil's emphatic finish ended an 18-month goalless period - his last goal was against Everton in March 2021 - that the 22-year-old himself described as a 'drought'.
