That move wants to earn a tempo. It threatens 5.c3 and 6.d4 to have got predominance in the center.
But if you play white be careful to Lasker defence:
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Ac4 Ac5 4.b4 B:b4 5.c3 Aa5 6.0-0 d6 7.d4 Ab6.
or 5...Ac5 6.d4 e:d4 7.0-0 d6.
These moves should advantage black and not white!

Ukraine Wins Gold Medal at Chess Olympiad — A draw in its final match on Sunday was enough to secure Ukraine the team gold medal in the open section of the Chess Olympiad in Khanty-Mansiysk, Russia. It was the first team medal for Ukraine in the competition, which is held every two years, since 2004, when Ukraine also won the gold. Russia’s top team had a chance to catch Ukraine in the last round, but only managed to draw against Spain, despite a win by Vladimir Kramnik over Alexei Shirov, Spain’s top chess player. Russia wound up with the silver — its first medal since 2004, when it also finished with the silver behind Ukraine. Israel, Ukraine’s final-round opponent, tied for third with Hungary, which beat Poland. On tie-breakers, Israel won ...

There is a lot of theory to the Evans, more than one could cover in a post. It is interesting to compare Morphy's and Anderssen's approach to the game. Anderssen always makes a threat when he moves, if the threat involves developing a piece it's a coincident, while Morphy makes a effort to develop a piece. While Morphy also likes to make threats he places a premium on development. If you Google the Evans Gambit you can find quite a bit of theory. I believe there are some articles at chesscafe.com which you should find when you do your search.

Magnus Carlsen plays the maverick but Michael Adams plays it canny — England experienced highs and lows in successive rounds at the Chess Olympiad this week and will do well to reach a top-15 finish in Sunday's final round. In round six Norway's boards 2-4 looked outgunned, so British chess champion Michael Adams v world No1 Magnus Carlsen seemed a critical pairing. Carlsen's opening three moves shocked the chess world: 1 e4 g6 2 d4 Nf6?! 3 e5 Nh5?! It appears a novice choice but is the North Sea Defence, has been tried by a few maverick chess grandmasters, and offers a pawn for active play by 4 Be2 d6 5 Bxh5 gxh5 6 Qxh5 dxe5 7 dxe5 Rg8. Adams preferred a slight risk-free edge but Carlsen's position was solid until his fresh provocations 18...g5? ...

At Chess Olympiad, No Team Is Perfect — It turns out that no team is capable of running away from the field at the Chess Olympiad, at least in the open section. Monday, the last three undefeated and untied teams in the competition — Hungary, Armenia and the Republic of Georgia — failed to win their matches. Armenia and Georgia played each other and drew, while Hungary lost to Ukraine. Armenia, Georgia and Ukraine are now tied for the lead with five wins and one draw, for a total of 11 points each. The two top Russian teams, Poland, the United States, Azerbaijan and Hungary are tied for fourth, each with 10 points. In the women’s portion of the Chess Olympiad, one team — the top one from Russia — remains perfect, though ...

Youtube is good because they play out the game on a chess board rather than having to follow chess notation - but iguess it is a matter of personal preference:)

The Evans is wonderful fun, but can get very positional and boring if black declines.
