Everton goalkeeper Joao Virginia proud of Prem debut

Everton goalkeeper Joao Virginia has recalled making his Premier League debut last season.

Everton number one Jordan Pickford was forced off during the first-half with a rib injury against Burnley with his side already 2-1 down.

“I came to play in the Premier League”, the stopper told Mais Futebol.

“I came in after Pickford got injured. It was brutal, but it was only a shame because there were no fans in the stadiums.

“I came on in the 40th minute against Burnley and I didn’t concede a goal. It’s the best league in the world, there’s a lot of intensity and the game doesn’t stop.

“The referee blows for a foul and there are no arguments.”

Just months after making his Premier League debut, Virginia joined Sporting Lisbon during the summer transfer window on a season-long loan.
