At long last, Steven Pienaar took the pitch.
On Saturday, Pienaar, who was yet to make an appearance for Everton this season because of a lengthy injury layoff, was named to the Toffees' starting XI for their FA Cup tie versus League Two side Dagenham & Redbridge.
It'll be great to see @therealstevenpi back on Saturday! https://t.co/kSB3B3JeEu #EFCvDAG
