Long, who played 45 minutes for the reserves in midweek, struck shortly before half-time and Anton Forrester doubled the lead after the break with a 20-yard effort.

The Potters pulled a goal back through Michael Clarkson but Everton held on for a 2-1 victory.

Subs: Richards, Eve, Sinclair, Debayo, Rossi (Roberts-Nurse 89).

Elsewhere, Everton U16s beat their Stoke counterparts by a goal to nil. The match-winning goal was scored by Courtney Duffus, recently signed from Cheltenham Town along with his brother Tyrone, and assisted by Danny O'Brien.
