Dominic Calvert-Lewin climbed off the bench to kick-start Everton\u2019s season in a 3-1 win at Brentford.<\/p>\n

The England striker grabbed his first goal of the campaign to wrap up a first Premier League win for Sean Dyche\u2019s side.<\/p>\n

James Tarkowski had headed the Toffees back into the lead against his old club after Mathias Jensen cancelled out Abdoulaye Doucoure\u2019s opener.<\/p>\n

It was a vastly improved display by Everton, although the Bees were not at their best.<\/p>\n

They were not helped by a late reshuffle after Kevin Schade limped off during the warm-up and was replaced by Keane Lewis-Potter.<\/p>\n

Ashley Young immediately fell foul of a surging Lewis-Potter run, the 38-year-old\u2019s tackle earning him a booking after just 38 seconds, the fastest of the season so far.<\/p>\n

But Everton went ahead in the sixth minute after James Garner\u2019s corner was initially cleared.<\/p>\n

When the ball was laid back to Garner, the England under-21 midfielder swung in a cross towards Tarkowski.<\/p>\n

The former Bees defender knocked the ball down and Doucoure lashed it home on the volley for what was only Everton\u2019s third league goal of the season.<\/p>\n

They should have been further ahead, but when Dwight McNeil raced on to Beto\u2019s flick-on he dragged his effort just wide, before Doucoure crashed a shot against the crossbar.<\/p>\n

Brentford were uncharacteristically giving the ball away at every opportunity, but when they finally managed to string a few passes together, they equalised.<\/p>\n

Bryan Mbeumo, Yoane Wissa and then Vitaly Janelt fed the ball out to Jensen, who took a touch before lashing his shot across goal and in off the far post.<\/p>\n

Everton almost hit the front again when Idrissa Gueye\u2019s through-ball found Beto, who dinked it over the advancing Mark Flekken only to see it float the wrong side of the post.<\/p>\n

Then Brentford missed a golden chance to go ahead after Gueye gave the ball away and Lewis-Potter just failed to convert Mbeumo\u2019s cross-shot at the far post.<\/p>\n

Dyche sent on Calvert-Lewin for Beto with half an hour to play, but it was Tarkowski who struck first with a towering header from McNeil\u2019s corner.<\/p>\n

There was no chance of a muted celebration from the centre-half, who was booed by the home fans throughout, as he gleefully ran off with his fingers in his ears.<\/p>\n

Calvert-Lewin, who is finally fit again after a string of injuries, then grabbed only his second goal since last October when he collected Garner\u2019s through-ball and slotted home to secure a much-needed victory.<\/p>\n
