Super Eagles midfielder Alexander Iwobi was on target for Everton in their 2-1 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers in their English premiership clash on Monday night.

Max Kilman’s first Wolves goal and Raul Jimenez’s 50th club goal were enough to send Bruno Lage’s men into seventh place in the Premier League and condemn Everton to a third successive defeat.

Wolves dominated the opening period of an entertaining contest and were worthy of a comfortable half-time cushion provided by Kilman’s far-post header and a lovely clipped finish by Jimenez.

However, after being booed off at the break, Rafael Benitez’s visitors were much improved when they returned.

Alex Iwobi scored in the 66th minutes to halved the deficit and it took a fabulous save by Jose Sa to deny substitute Anthony Gordon four minutes from time.

Wolves managed to avoid conceding an injury-time equaliser to take their points tally to 13 from five games.
