Everton boss Roberto Martinez was pleased with victory over Burnley.

Kevin Mirallas' first-half strike proved the difference as the Blues made it four wins from five in the Premier League.

"I was very pleased with the overall performance," said Martinez. "The scoreline shows a very good clean sheet and a good goal but we had over 20 attempts to score more. I think we should have [scored more] - we had enough opportunities even without the penalty.

"There is the respect we have towards Burnley and the way they can create chances out of very little. They have real presence up front - Danny Ings is a very clever footballer and they work the ball really well, but we restricted them to one shot on target.

"Being against 10 men can sometimes be very dangerous and I thought we coped with that very well. We never left ourselves exposed and it was a matter of keeping our concentration, defending well, keeping the clean sheet and trying to score that second goal.

"We don't take anything for granted and it was very important to win a game like this."
