Darron Gibson helped former team Manchester United as his first goal for Everton was enough to beat Premier League leaders Manchester City.
Denis Stracqualursi’s header was nodded off the line by Joleon Lescott as Samir Nasri hit the bar in the first half.
The hosts paraded new signing Nikica Jelavic at half-time and Gibson lifted the crowd further when he struck following Leighton Baines’ cross.

Everton required a Victor Anichebe leveler – set up by the American – to take a share of the spoils at Villa Park after Darren Bent had put the hosts ahead.
But the Toffees were good value for a point and could even have taken all three with Shay Given making a number of excellent saves.
Moyes said: “We did okay, we passed it quite well in the first half and made some opportunities.
“I think overall it the players did okay. We got a good point, when we went a goal down it was going to be difficult, they had one or two moments but we kept going.”
