Sunday's European Leagues Round up

ENGLAND
There were only two matches in England on Sunday as fourteen teams had played their matches on Saturday with only one match left to be played, Tottenham against Aston Villa.

 Here's a review of matches played yesterday in the Premier League
It was goals galore at Goodison Park, as Everton hit six past Sunderland in a feisty encounter, Spanish teenage Deulofeu started the rout in the 19th minute before Aruna Kone double the lead in the 31st minute as he finished a delightful move full of one-twos and neat touches with Romelu Lukaku. The Ivorian played a slick give-and-go with Lukaku on the edge of the box before lashing a strike into the top corner giving Pantilimon no chance of keeping it out, as he watched the ball stroll into the net. The first half was poised to end with Everton two goals up but Defoe gave the black cats a glimpse of hope as he hits a volley which slightly deflected off the toe of Stones looping over Howard into the corner. The first half ended with the score line at
2 - 1.

The second half began with Everton starting the proceedings, but Sunderland start up from where they have stopped in the first half, not quite long, in the 50th minute, Fletcher gets up above Funes Mori and powers his header into the corner from five yards out after a precise cross from Van Aanholt.

The goal I guess, furiated the toffees as they were seeking their forth win of the season, they quickly responded back on the 55th minute as Deulofeu gave a cross into the box aimed at Lukaku but it found Coates score an own goal as he toe poke it past Pantilimon, which gave Everton the lead 3 - 2. Not quite long, 5 minutes later, Lukaku got his first goal of the match as Deulofeu yet again gave another assist to Lukaku who calmly dispatched former Manchester City Keeper and slot the goal into an empty neat taking the toffees re-establishing their two goal lead, his goal took him to six goals in the premier league, shortly in the 62nd minute Aruna Kone scored again and he completed his hat trick in the 76th minute to keep the game far reach from the black cats. The game ended with the scores at 6 - 2. Aruna Koné scored the 300th goal of the 2015-16 Premier League season and his first Hat-trick for Everton.

The result leaves Everton move to 9th position with 16 points and leaves Sunderland in the 19th position with 6 points which they can move to the bottom of the table pending the game of Aston Villa which game is on Monday.

Everton's thrashing of Sunderland was just the fourth time in 440 matches a Sam Allardyce team has conceded six in the Premier League.

Graziano Pelle doubled the lead within five minutes as he headed in Dusan Tadic's pinpoint ball for his sixth league goal of the season.

Monaco made it back-to-back Ligue 1 victories for the first time this season with a hard-fought 1-0 triumph over early season surprise package Angers. Monaco extended their unbeaten Ligue 1 run to six games and claimed their first home win of the season with a 1-0 victory over joint-second placed Angers. Chelsea loanee Mario Pasalic's first-half goal handed Angers their second defeat of the season.

Monaco's win lifts them into sixth, but just two points separate them and second-placed Lyon.
Marseille defeated Nantes 1-0 as they look to build a much-needed run of in-form striker Georges-Kevin N'Koudou as he scored the winner in the 53rd minute.

Elsewhere, Nice were held 0-0 at home by lowly Lille with Vincent Enyeama in between the post for Lille. Lille seats in the 16th position with 12points from 12games, here's a look at their table

Athletic Bilbao leapfrogged Real Betis in the La Liga table by claiming a 3-1 victory over their opponents. The visitors took the lead just eight minutes into the match as Inaki Williams scored from the edge of the box, after Betis had failed to clear from a corner. They grabbed a second goal on the stroke of half time as Williams scored from inside the six-yard box as he flicked in Raul Garcia's cross.

After the break, Betis were handed a lifeline as Williams gave away a penalty for handling the ball inside the box, and Ruben Castro stepped up to convert from the spot. In the closing half of the game, with three minutes left to play Garcia latched onto Aduriz's knock down before drilling a strike into the corner to seal the points for the visitors. The match ended with the visitors running away with a 1 - 3 win.
