Everton's return to European football after five years away was marked with a fine 4-1 win over Wolfsburg last night.

Steven Naismith's deflected shot, Seamus Coleman's goal, Leighton Baines' penalty and Kevin Mirallas' strike gave the Toffees a night to remember at Goodison. Ricardo Rodriquez's late free-kick got Wolfsburg a consolation but it was Everton's night in Europa League Group H.

Manager Roberto Martinez said: "It was a really good evening. It was phenomenal to see the fans and it was pleasing to finish with that scoreline.

"It's fair to say Wolfsburg have energy so we stopped their pressure and if you stop that, you stop them being a real threat.

"We tried to play through them and use the gaps. We used our pressure better than them and got some opportunities by being well organised.

"It was a really open game. Both teams wanted to get on the ball and the fans enjoy watching us play."

Scotland striker Naismith added: "We broke their lines with some forward passes and created chances.

"There is more to come. The manager has signed some very good players."

Tottenham got their Group C campaign off to a sturdy start by securing a hard-fought 0-0 draw in an intimidating atmosphere in the Serbian capital.

But the solid performance was overshadowed by an anti-Semitic banner in the home end at Partizan Stadium.

Uefa officials took photographs of the banner and are investigating the incident.

Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino said: "I did not see the banner. But if this is true, then it is an unacceptable thing. It is very disrespectful. This is a shame."

In 2007, Partizan were thrown out of the Uefa Cup and fined for rioting during a first qualifying round clash at Zrinjski Mostar.
