Romelu Lukaku ended a wait of 1,139 minutes for a competitive Everton goal by scoring a hat-trick in their 3-0 win away to Sunderland.
A second-half hat-trick from Romelu Lukaku gave Everton a 3-0 victory away to Sunderland in Monday's Premier League clash.
The striker had gone 1,139 competitive minutes without a club goal before he headed in Idrissa Gueye's cross to give Ronald Koeman's side a lead they never looked likely to surrender.
Jermain Defoe spurned a clear opening for the home side early in the first half, but chances were few and far between in an end-to-end opening period at the Stadium of Light before Lukaku broke the deadlock.
