Everton fullback Leighton Baines is delighted over his reunion with Steven Pienaar.

The chemistry between the two was particularly apparent in the first half and Baines admitted it was nice to see the axis operating so smoothly.

Baines told evertonfc.com: "Steven is pretty much at the heart of everything we do so it is no surprise to see him producing moments like that. To have him back is a big boost for everyone as we all know what he is capable of.

"It is really nice to be off the mark and if I can help chip in with a few goals throughout the season then that's great as it will help the team."
