You Tube : Abdoulaye Doucoure heads Toffees to fifth straight home win
Report and match highlights as Everton win to nil for the fifth straight game at Goodison Park; Sheffield United have now conceded 101 Premier League goals this season - a new record
Abdoulaye Doucoure's first-half header sent Everton to a fifth straight home win and clean sheet as they beat Sheffield United 1-0.
Sean Dyche's inspired side have made Goodison Park a fortress when it has mattered most this season and Doucoure was on hand to head home a Dominic Calvert-Lewin cross on 31 minutes.
That was the 101st goal Sheffield United have conceded this season - no side in Premier League history have conceded more over the course of a season.
This victory took Everton to 40 points - without their eight-point deduction for financial breaches they would have been pushing for a top-half spot - and comfortably 15th ahead of the daunting final-day trip to Arsenal.
On the pitch, at least, the season is finishing positively.
