Danny Ings scored early on in the second half but the home side held on to secure the three points in the end.

Theo Walcott took to Twitter to send out a message to the Everton fans after the game. He also sent out a message to his former club Southampton.

The Everton winger wished his former club well for the season ahead.

His tweet read: “Great performance from the lads and our fans today! Happy to get my first goal of the campaign as well. Good luck to my old club @SouthamptonFC for the rest of the season”.

The fans would have been delighted with Walcott’s match-winning display anyway but his classy gesture towards Southampton will further endear him to the fans.
