Brighton achieved a commanding 3-0 victory over Everton in their opening match of the English Premier League (EPL). The encounter took place at Goodison Park in Liverpool.
The goals for the visitors came from Kaoru Mitoma in the 26th minute, Danny Welbeck in the 56th minute, and Simon Adingra in the 87th minute.
Everton found themselves down to ten men in the 66th minute after defender Ashley Young received a straight red card.
