What a finish at Goodison Park, Pienaar and Jelavic score goals at the death to give the Toffees the win.
Still a few seconds remaining at a rocking Goodison Park where goalscorer Nikica Jelavic is replaced by Johnny Heitinga #EVETOT

Tottenham's defense has improved since the start of the half and have been the difference maker in today's match.
85' TOTTENHAM SUBSTITUTION!
Iago Falque makes his EPL debut as he comes on for Jermain Defoe.

85' OFF THE CROSSBAR!

84' Everton are trying their best to find an equalizer with the addition of Vellios.
However, it looks like the Toffees are beginning to get fatigued out on the pitch.
On comes Vellios for Osman in a bid to get back into this one. Result as it stands harsh on the Blues

81' EVERTON SUBSTITUTION!
Apostolos Vellios replaces Leon Osman.
It was deflected to put it on a different trajectory that Howard couldn't adjust to, but Dempsey did well on the play.

Dempsey's long-range shot took a deflection off Sylvain Distin and floated just over Tim Howard for the opening goal.

Tom Huddlestone comes on to the pitch replacing Aaron Lennon.
70' YELLOW CARD!

67' CHANCE!

62. Everton win a free-kick wide right, they cross and Fellaini heads at goal but Lloris gathers with ease.

62' CHANCE!
The head of Fellaini generates a shot on goal that goes right into the arms of Hugo Lloris.
60' Fellaini and Pienaar showing off plenty of skill on the left wing but the final pass in for Baines is poor.
