Martinez: QPR win my most satisfying as Everton manager

Everton boss Roberto Martinez has labeled the 2-1 victory over QPR as 'one of the most satisfying' during his time at Goodison Park.

Everton won consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since October and now sit comfortably in 13th spot, nine points above the relegation zone.

Seamus Coleman's opener was cancelled out by QPR's Chilean forward Eduardo Vargas in the second half but Aaron Lennon's first goal for the club gave the Toffees all three points in the end, sating the manager.

"It's probably the most satisfying win in my time at Everton," said Martinez.

"The amount of emotion we had on Thursday and we got back really late - this season we have found it very difficult to get a win after Europe."

The Merseyside club bowed out of the Europa League after their 5-2 loss against Dynamo Kyiv on Thursday night.
