Everton opened their brand new stadium on Monday night with 10,000 fans heading to Bramley-Moore Dock for a special test event.

Said test event was an Under 18s game between the Toffees and Wigan with all the home supporters filling the stadium's new South Stand.

Hilariously though, the first ever goal at the new ground came from a Liverpool-supporting Wigan striker, Harrison Rimmer.

And Rimmer was quick to remind Everton of his team's European Cup successes down the years.

Everton would eventually go on to score themselves with Ray Robert netting a penalty late on in a 2-1 defeat.

Might as well start as you mean to go on, eh lads.
