David Moyes insisted Everton must take the spirit of Goodison Park into their new stadium to build another era of success.
On a raucous and emotional afternoon, the home side gave a full house what they wanted with two goals by Iliman Ndiaye enough for them to beat Southampton in the final men’s game at the old stadium.
Moyes secured Everton’s Premier League status after replacing Sean Dyche in January, but wants the club to move on to bigger and better things when they move to the Hill Dickinson Stadium next season.
