Sunday's contest wasn't an outstanding one, as Crystal Palace frustrated Everton for large stretches of the match and the Toffees showed far too little in the attacking third.

The lack of creativity looked like it would cost the hosts when Luka Milivojevic got his chance from the penalty spot, but his effort was a tame one and Pickford made a great stop:

The stop gave the Toffees renewed momentum and manager Marco Silva made some fantastic substitutions, resulting in the late win. Ademola Lookman came off the bench to find fellow sub Calvert-Lewin, who headed home for the lead.

Minutes later another substitute, Tosun, finished the job on the counter. Indy Football praised the tactician for his decisions:

Everton have now won three in a row and sit just three points behind Arsenal, who will host Leicester on Monday.
