West Ham's Mido wasted a first-half penalty, before Manuel Da Costa levelled on the hour mark, only for Yakubu Aiyegbeni to grab what looked like a late winner for the Toffees.

Elsewhere in the Premiership overnight, Mark Schwarzer put in a full shift for Fulham who come frmo behind to defeat Wigan 2-1.

Nevertheless, Wigan went ahead on 34 minutes courtesy of Jason Scotland's low drive, but Fulham fought back with two second-half goals winning it.

Joel did have his own chances to win it for Beijing, forcing a save out of Shenzhen keeper Cheng Yuelei with a looping header, before heading straight at the stopper late on.
