Abdoulaye Doucoure created history while David Moyes continued his re-birth of Everton with the speed of the sound.
But for Ruud van Nistleroy there was only more misery when Leicester City went to an eighth league -the defeat in nine … and the proof of this collapse drops.
Only 10.18 seconds were on the clock when Doucoure ran on a good down-field from Jordan Pickford and staggered along the wall flowers around him to hit home.
The Mali International strike was the fourth – fastest ever in the Premier League and the fastest by a home team in the competition.
By the sixth minute Beto had doubled the management – that blue blur of a start that the Toffees sent for the first time since April for the first time to a third consecutive victory.
Beto held the momentum for two minutes in the first half of the stopping time with the third of his side to let Everton's fans dance in the aisles before Iliman Ndiaye tapped home when the clock hit 90.
The entrance to Moyes as the successor to Sean Dyche and a return for a second Stint that was in charge was characterized by a 1-0 Goodison Park defeat against Aston Villa.
That reverse, a third in a row, left the team that Moyes only took over one point above the drop zone.
But they ended this game ten points free of wolves from the third soil before they caught their tea time collision with villa – and even above Tottenham that dropped to the 16th – while the foxes fall quickly again.
The Scotsman would not dream aloud that his return after a dozen year now sends the club to safety, but he will calmly know that only complete disaster can stop.
Even the fact that the team was destroyed by injury did nothing to stop the launch after that first loss on his return.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been out for ten weeks with hamstring problems, on-Loan midfielder Orel Mangala goes back to Lyon after an ACL knee injury and winger Dwight McNeil still recovers from knee operation.
Another striker in Armando Broja, on loan from Chelsea, is also absent for another six weeks with knee problems.
But in Beto, the frontman who Dyche could never get a song, he suddenly has an alternative the power that the ex -Boss convinced to sign him for £ 26 million from Udinese 18 months ago.
The 27-year-old had only scored one prem target all season, his minutes strictly limited due to Dyche's preference for DCL.
But here he loved it under Moyes, continued to James Tarkowski's pass and beyond Wout Faes to turn the ball around Mads Hermansen as cool as you want.
James Garner, who made his first start in four months after many injury problems of his own, then delivered a brilliant, very accurate 30-year Pass and Beto left Faes and Co for killing.
Between those goals, the former midfielder of Manchester United also met the right -hand post of Hermansen.
Doucoure should also have claimed his second in the 45th minute, but leaned back when he made contact with the perfect layer -off of Vitaliy Mykolenko.
All this tells the story of the first half of the foxes in which they could not even run for coverage.
And go ahead? Forget it.
Veteran Jamie Vardy was only allowed nine touches when he was replaced by Patson Daka and hour in.
Van Nistelrooy would have hoped that the shock 2-1 victory in Tottenham would have inspired his side last weekend.
Nevertheless, they remained shocked by that lightning opener and never got over it, Ndiyae added a fourth in the last minute when Faes and Caleb Okoli ran against each other.
Van Nistlerooy, only a dozen competitions in the work, only won two of them in the prems and if he does not yet look over his shoulder, he should be.
