Phil Neville bemoans "disappointing result"

Phil Neville has admitted that his Everton side underperformed during their Premier League encounter away at Sunderland earlier today.

A goal from Stephane Sessegnon was enough for the Black Cats to claim all three points at the Stadium of Light as they boosted their chances of survival.

Meanwhile, the 1-0 defeat has all but ended Everton's hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League.

"Disapointing result we never got going today and Sunderland fought hard. Still 4 games left and we will fight to the end," Neville wrote on Twitter.

Next weekend Neville's team will play host to Fulham.
