Marc Cushnie's Everton are back in the Premier League after a playoff victory this week. After a narrow 2-1 semi final win over Ipswich they faced John Ferguson's Aston Villa in the final, Villa having beaten Bolton 4-2. Villa finished third in the table, Everton fourth, so perhaps they were slight favourites, but there wasn't too much in it - and in the end one player made all the difference. Lukaku scored after just three minutes at Wembley to put the Toffees in front, Skrtel levelled for Villa but the big Belgian striker added two more to earn Everton a glorious victory.
Borussia Dortmund saw off Santos 1-0 in the Euro playoffs, Dortmund having beaten Parma 2-1 in the semi final.
