Theo Walcott Is Everton's New Hero

Theo Walcott came in from Arsenal with hella expectations on his shoulders.

Dude's living up to every bit of it.

Everton hosted Leciester City’s Foxes at Goodison Park and came out a close 2-1 winner, all thanks to Walcott’s brace.

He's giving the Blues fans reason to make it to the matches, especially one like this.

 

Both Everton and Leicester are in Premiership limbo. They're too far away from having a shot at Europe and a safe distance from relegation. The only drama they'll have will be of their own making.

With these teams being equally matched in every aspect statistically, but in matches like these, a little magic is what makes all the difference.

 

Everton’s attacking pressure turned out to be too much for the Foxes’ defense, which is how Theo Walcott took full advantage.

 

Dude's the fastest player in the league and, incredibly, is left with acres of space.

Surely it’s a goal.

Even more incredibly, only 14 minutes later, Walcott went inside the Leicester defense again and -- whaddaya know! -- came out with a goal again in the 38th minute:

 

He must be more at home than he ever was at Arsenal.

And what would a match like this be without a lovely parting gift for the loser?

So, right on schedule, the softest of penalties was awarded to Leicester, which Jamie Vardy had no problem converting:

 

At the prescribed time, the whistle blew. No impact whatsoever was had in the Premiership.

 

But the locals went home happy, it was a decent day trip for the visitors ...

And Theo Walcott felt even more fulfilled.
