Everton's Europa League hopes are over after a humbling defeat at Lyon.

Ex-Chelsea striker Betrand Traore opened the scoring midway through the second half, before substitute Houssem Aouar and former Manchester United winger Memphis Depay closed out the scoring at 3-0. Morgan Schneiderlin was also sent off for Everton on 80 minutes.

The defeat marked Everton's fifth in a row in all competitions.

Everton caretaker manager David Unsworth insists the defeat was undeserved.

“I'm really disappointed with the result," said Unsworth. “For nearly 70 minutes we were nearly perfect with our gameplan and created a couple of opportunities that we could and should have scored. To concede the first goal was really disappointing. A lucky ricochet in the middle of the park gets the lad in and he finishes well. The second goal is a killer, a long ball down the middle of the pitch and we don't deal with it - that's a real disappointment for me.

“But the effort and commitment was there. In periods we showed some nice touches and created a couple of opportunities against a very good Lyon team.

“But we just can't cave in the way we do when we concede a goal. That's something that we need to rectify very, very quickly going into Sunday's game.

“I say to all players I've coached and managed, when you concede, for five or 10 minutes you all come together and don't concede again.

“We've got to pick ourselves up really, really quickly. I don't like dismissing games, particularly games that you don't win, because you want to pick the bones out of them and have the time to work on things on the training ground. But we don't have that time, so we have to recover quickly and go again on Sunday."
