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.
Pienaar last featured for Everton in April, when he replaced Leon Osman in the 28th minute of the Toffees' Premier League draw at Swansea City.
