In one game, West Ham have doubled their goals tally.
Rehanne Skinner’s side have often been underwhelming this season, but they made the most of their chances and set up in a way that proved difficult for the Toffees to handle.
Using wide areas to stretch the Everton back line produced space inside for Martinez, Ueki and Asseyi to allow show their talents, tiring the visitors’ defence as they tried to keep up.
In midfield, they were switched on and broke up play when the Toffees tried to counter-attack before using the possession to spark moves of their own.
While the game was relatively close in the opening exchanges, two quick goals for Skinner’s side unsettled Everton and, after that, they never looked the same calibre of opponent, misplacing passes and failing to track runs.
The Irons’ high press made it even trickier for the Toffees to try to find a response, with players not being given time to work the ball out from the back.
West Ham were simply sharper, more tactically astute and did not allow their standards to dip.
It has taken time for Skinner to be able to produce results with her West Ham team, but the past two games show that they have reasons to be positive.
Everton, meanwhile, who are now just a point ahead of West Ham and three off the bottom, have faltered since their promising start and need to turn things around.
Without the injured Kelly Gago, they were a shadow of the team who were only narrowly beaten 2-1 by leaders Manchester City last time out.
