On-loan striker Jo netted a brace as Everton claimed a comfortable 4-0 Premier League victory over Wigan Athletic at Goodison Park on Sunday.
The Brazilian striker, who joined the Toffees from Manchester City in January, took his Everton goalscoring tally to five in seven appearances as the Merseyside club closed on fifth-placed Aston Villa.
Jo broke the deadlock with a sweet first touch and finish, before towering midfielder Marouane Fellaini nestled home with a smart strike on the turn two minutes into the second half.
The Latics rarely threatened, despite Steve Bruce's side pushing for a European berth, and Jo grabbed his second of the game via an easy tap-in, before Leon Osman, who impressed throughout, compounded Wigan's misery.
Everton had full-back Tony Hibbert back in the side after missing four matches with a thigh injury, which left Lars Jacobsen relegated to the substitutes' bench, along with Louis Saha who was replaced by Tim Cahill from the side that lost at Portsmouth last time out.
