For Burnley, the most positive news was Lyle Foster being maned among the substitutes and introduced at the interval.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/16\/19\/79039833-0-image-a-1_1702754698413.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Amadou Onana scored as Everton sealed a comfortable 2-0 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/16\/19\/79041289-12872213-image-a-10_1702755286045.jpg\" height=\"478\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>It was a winning return to Turf Moor for former Burnley manager Sean Dyche<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/16\/19\/79039299-12872213-image-a-11_1702755316499.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Onana&#8217;s towering header gave Everton the lead as he leapt above Burnley&#8217;s defence<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>The South African forward last played in October to receive support for mental health issues.<\/p>\n<p>Everton attacked the end where their own supporters were gathered for the first half and it was Burnley forced to defend like a doughty Dyche team.<\/p>\n<p>McNeil could have opened the scoring after 10 minutes when he steered a header wide after being picked out by Jack Harrison.<\/p>\n<p>Dara O&#8217;Shea then got an excellent block to deny James Garner after a nod-down by Dominic Calvert-Lewin.<\/p>\n<p>The hosts couldn&#8217;t survive the pressure for long.
