For Everton, the contest was all about saying goodbye to its grand old stadium, which has been its home since 1892.

It was Ndiaye, in his first season at the club, who ensured it bowed out with a victory over the Premier League's bottom club.

He opened the scoring in the sixth minute, slotting home at the end of a mazy run.

Ndiaye doubled his tally on the stroke of half-time, beating Aaron Ramsdale to Dwight McNeil's pass and tapping into an empty net.

Everton, which also saw Beto have two goals disallowed, pushed for a final moment of magic at the Gwladys Street End, but Ndiaye will go down as its last goalscorer at the stadium, while Jordan Pickford made a fantastic save to prevent Cameron Archer setting up a nervy finish.
