Everton advanced to the FA Cup quarter-finals with a 2-0 win over a tenacious Boreham Wood side, thanks to a brace and man of the match performance from Salomon Rondon.

The 32-year-old scored two goals in the second half to help the Premier League side avoid a major shock from the non-league side.

Goal-line technology was needed for his second goal though as his header just crept over the line.

The Venezuelan forward is the first player to score against Boreham Wood in the Emirates FA Cup this season.

The National League club’s dream has come to an end, but they can surely depart Goodison Park with their dignity intact.

Everton will play Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Monday.

While Boreham Wood will head to Wrexham to continue their pursuit for promotion from the National League.
