Lukaku becomes Everton's joint leading Premier League scorer

Romelu Lukaku scored his 60th Premier League goal for Everton against Sunderland to join Duncan Ferguson as the club's joint-highest scorer in the competition.

The Belgium international netted 10 minutes from time at Goodison Park on Saturday, holding off former team-mate Bryan Oviedo before beating Jordan Pickford to wrap up a 2-0 win.

Ferguson's record had stood since he retired at the end of the 2005-06 campaign, 12 years on from his first Premier League goal for the club against Liverpool in November 1994.

He will now have his personal season-best haul of 18 from last term in his sights, as Saturday's strike was his 17th of the campaign.
