Baggies bounce past Everton

West Brom struck twice in each half to end their Barclays Premier League slump with a convincing 4-1 win in an eventful encounter at Everton.

Paul Scharner and Chris Brunt put the Baggies into a 2-0 lead at Goodison Park before Everton's top goalscorer Tim Cahill pulled one back.

Everton's hopes of a fightback were dashed as Mikel Arteta was sent off for stamping and Somen Tchyoi and Youssouf Mulumbu, with aid of a Sylvain Distin deflection, finished them off before the midfielder was sent off for two bookable offences.
