Alex Iwobi net first league goal in Everton away defeat

Alex Iwobi on Monday night grabbed his first league goal of the season as Everton fell to a 2-1 defeat against Wolves at the Molineux Stadium.

Wolves remain unbeaten in their last five Premier League games after clinching a 2-1 win over Everton, thanks to first-half goals from Kilman and Jimenez.

The Bruno Lage side dominated much of the game and was expected to score more but Trincao only came close and Jimenez hit the post in the second half.

Everton also came into second half looking much stronger after the introduction of Delph in midfield and it paid off as Iwobi pulled one back but they failed to complete the comeback as Wolves ran off with the win.
