Everton fans have had plenty to keep an eye on during the international break as a number of their squad have been rewarded for their fine starts to the season.

After Michael Keane made his return to the England set-up in last week’s victory over the United States and Jordan Pickford featured twice for the Three Lions, Everton also had a star in action for one of the world’s biggest nations.

Richarlison came off the bench for a cameo appearance in Brazil’s clash with Uruguay at the Emirates Stadium, where Tite’s side won 1-0 thanks to Neymar’s penalty.

The 21-year-old featured for the final 20 minutes of the game and had a glorious opportunity to find the net after being fed through by Paris Saint-Germain superstar Neymar but fired wide of the target – although he still managed to catch the eye.

Many fans took to social media after the game to praise Everton’s expensive summer addition and we have gathered some of the best reactions below.
