The South African midfielder, who recently retired from the Bafana Bafana national team, made a significant contribution by finding the net in the first half at the 16th minute, assisted by Leon Osman. Despite Fulham’s efforts to stage a comeback in the second half, Everton successfully maintained their lead and secured the win.
This victory propels Everton to the 6th position in the standings, just 3 points behind Tottenham, who had a draw against Wigan. With this result, Everton remains in the race for European qualification, including the possibility of securing a spot in the UEFA Champions League.
