PAUL Ince made a winning start to his Premier League managerial career as Blackburn secured a late 3-2 win at Everton.

Rovers won with a goal from defender Andre Ooijer four minutes into injury-time.

They had led through David Dunn, before Mikel Arteta equalised for Everton with a fine free-kick in first-half injury-time.

When Ayegbeni Yakubu put Everton ahead, it looked as if the hosts were going to grab the points.

But Roque Santa Cruz and then Dutchman Ooijer had different ideas.

The visitors took the lead after 22 minutes, with Morten Gamst Pedersen and Santa Cruz involved in the build-up, but Dunn did much of the hard work himself by sending Phil Jagielka skidding away on his backside - having shifted the ball from right to left foot before firing past Tim Howard.

Two minutes into first-half injury-time Arteta was on the score sheet with a curling free-kick - for a harsh hand-ball against Steven Reid - that left Paul Robinson standing.

After 64 minutes Everton surged into the lead. Yakubu's neat ball out to the left sent Arteta racing away - and when the far-post cross arrived, Yakubu was towering above everyone to head home.

The lead lasted two minutes before Stephen Warnock's angled ball in from the left saw Santa Cruz get goal side of Joleon Lescott to ease the ball past Howard.

But Blackburn stole the points in the 94th minute when Warnock's free-kick was headed against the post by Ryan Nelsen, with Ooijer tapping home the rebound.
