Garner struck in the 34th minute after Tyrique George pressured Amar Dedic and Hackney helped the ball towards the midfielder, who finished from outside the penalty area.

Barry supplied the cross for Hackney to double the lead in the 45th minute, rewarding Moyes’ decision to start Hackney.

Newcastle introduced Yoane Wissa, Joelinton and Anthony Elanga at the interval, but Everton extended their advantage when Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall found Barry for the third goal in the 69th minute.

Burn headed Newcastle’s consolation in the 88th minute, but Everton had already established a decisive advantage, as confirmed in Everton’s official match report.

Moyes made two changes from the side that started against Arsenal, bringing Hackney and Tyler Dibling into the team for Harrison Armstrong and Brennan Johnson.

Everton’s team-news announcement stated: “Jack Grealish is unavailable for selection due to a breach of Club discipline.” Jarrad Branthwaite remained absent under concussion protocols.

James Tarkowski captained a defence featuring Merlin Röhl, Jake O’Brien and Vitalii Mykolenko in front of Jordan Pickford. George and Dibling supported Barry from the flanks, with Hackney joining Garner and Dewsbury-Hall in midfield.
