Gareth Barry's elbow makes contact with Cedric Soares, but the midfielder does not get a yellow card. The medical team are whispering something into the Southampton man's ear, or just looking for excess wax. I can't tell, but his head is eventually bandaged and it's a rather fetching look Cedric now sports.

Graziano Pelle the outlet for Southampton and, once again, he attempts to shoot on the turn but his fails to hit it true and John Stones is standing close by to ensure he doesn't get a second bite. 

Brendan Galloway walking gingerly off the pitch to receive treatment, but the knock doesn't look like something which could prematurely bring his match to an end.

Everton's players passing to each other, comfortable in possession. But a hopeful hoof towards Romelu Lukaku fails to find the Belgian and the visitors must shuffle back in line as Southampton grab possession and spray it around midfield. 

A delicious ball from Sadio Mane towards the box and Seamus Coleman can only control with his chest...the ball bounces towards Graziano Pelle... a shuffle of the hips, the Italian turns on the half-volley but directly aims at Tim Howard.

Victor Wanyama bullies Brendan Galloway off the ball, sprints down the right, but is stopped in his tracks by Ross Barkley. Nothing is quite going to plan for the Saints, but they're huffing and puffing. Three corners in the first six minutes of the second half. The latest of which is headed away from Arouna Kone. 

A booking for Oriol Romeu for a late tackle on James McCarthy. A deserved booking, rashly lunging at the Everton man's feet, even though the home crowd are hissing. 

Steven Davies' header finds Jose Fonte, but it's the defender's shoulder which makes contact with the ball and it bobbles out of play. Southampton on the front foot, though, as they search for a comeback. 

One change for Southampton at half-time as new signing Oriol Romeu makes his debut, replacing the disappointing Duscan Tadic. It means a change of formation for the hosts, with Sadio Mane switching to the left and Shane Long moving to the right. Will it make a difference?

The players have returned to the pitch, which is a relief. The second-half will soon be under way

This is the first time Romelu Lukaku has scored a brace in the Premier League since November 2013 (against Liverpool). He has had two shots so far today and scored with both and is now the top-scoring Belgian in Premier League history with 44 goals (two ahead of Christian Benteke).  

(Below is an illustration of where he scored from.)

Tim Howard commands his area, punching the ball away. And that is that for the first half. 

Southampton earn a free-kick on the edge of the box. Ross Barkley, who receives a yellow card, the culprit for a slider on Sadio Mane. Will this half ever end? 

Two minutes of added time... 

Punchy, ruthless stuff from Everton. A few passes and - goal - they double their advantage.

Duscan Tadic with Graziano Pelle and the onrushing Shane Long to aim at inside the box, but his cross from the right sails out of bounds. A disappointing effort from a promising position.
