Watch all the goals from Everton's 22-0 pre-season win against Austrian side ATV Irdning.

Marco Silva got off to an eye-catching start at Everton as his players hit 22 goals without reply in a freak pre-season friendly.

The Toffees led 6-0 against Austrian side ATV Irdning after just 17 minutes and 10-0 at half-time, with 12 further goals coming after the break despite a raft of changes.

Kevin Mirallas - who only came on at the interval - scored five, while Oumar Niasse and Cenk Tosun notched four and Ademola Lookman grabbed a hat-trick.

Further goals in a game Everton modestly described as "emphatic" came from Leighton Baines, Mason Holgate, Michael Keane and Nikola Vlasic (2), with a bizarre 25-yard own goal adding to the haul.

Silva's side even had two goals ruled out for offside, Niasse and Tosun denied, and one for an adjudged foul from Keane.

Everton's biggest-ever recorded win was 14-0 - against New Ferry in the Liverpool Senior Cup in 1885 and against Notts Rangers in a friendly in 1890 - but this time the club's Twitter feed had to reassure followers they had not made an error.
