Everton vs Brentford LIVE: Premier League latest score and goal updates as quickfire double puts Bees ahead at 10-man Toffees

Everton face yet another pivotal home game in their fight against Premier League relegation with Brentford the visitors at Goodison Park this afternoon.

The Toffees have picked up momentum in recent weeks and a point at already-relegated Watford midweek backed up the win over Chelsea last weekend achieved by Frank Lampard’s men. More points are required though as they battle with Leeds and Burnley to avoid the drop into the Championship.

The Bees are not playing for anything, having already secured their Premier League status for another season, but a 3-0 win last weekend against Southampton shows that Thomas Frank’s side will remain a tough out for opponents.

Meanwhile, Lampard has called on Everton’s fans to help lift the side in this crunch clash. “They are extraordinary,” he said of the supporters. “They are pushing, along with the players. They will stick with us. It’s important the players rest now before two games on the bounce at Goodison. We have to fight. We know what we need now.”

Follow all the action from Goodison Park below, following the conlcusion of the 2pm kick-offs:

Everton 2-3 Brentford

18:03 , Dylan Terry

70 mins: Everton are chasing the game now and leaving huge spaces for Brentford to counter into.

Dasilva tries to curl one into Pickford’s far post and when the ball deflects to Henry he miscues his effort and the Everton keeper can comfortably collect.

Everton 2-3 Brentford

18:00 , Dylan Terry

Here is the moment the turnaround was completed at Goodison Park.

Everton 2-3 Brentford

18:00 , Dylan Terry

67 mins: Do Everton have anything left? They have looked completely bereft of energy or fight in this second half. Yes, they are down to 10 men, but it’s been so easy for Brentford.

You can only really see this match going one way now and that’s the visitors scoring more goals.

Everton 2-3 Brentford

17:58 , Dylan Terry

Here is the equaliser from Yoane Wissa.

GOAL! Everton 2-3 Brentford (Henry, 64)

17:56 , Dylan Terry

64 mins: Two in three minutes and Brentford lead!

The turnaround is complete at Goodison Park and Everton are suddenly staring down the barrel of a defeat.

Norgaard has so much time and space to pick out a yellow shirt in the middle and Henry leaps to plant a header beyond Pickford.

Simple goal. Brentford in front.

GOAL! Everton 2-2 Brentford (Wissa, 62)

17:54 , Dylan Terry

62 mins: All square again and this is Wissa’s goal!

You can’t say it hasn’t been coming. Eriksen swings in the corner and Wissa gets across his marker at the front post to glance a header into the far corner.

Delightful header. Brentford have dominated this second half.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:54 , Dylan Terry

62 mins: That was vintage Richarlison. He incredibly brought a crossfield pass down on his back (yes, his back!) and then immediately gave the ball away seconds later. Perhaps a little harsh given he has scored and assisted in this game, but you get what I mean. A frustrating player at times.

Jensen swings a delightful ball out to Henry on the left flank. Gordon stops the cross but it is a corner to Brentford.

Eriksen delivers the set-piece and...

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:52 , Dylan Terry

60 mins: Bit of handbags there. Mykolenko and Toney square up to one another in the Everton penalty area. Mykolenko appears to put his head towards Toney’s and VAR take a look at it for a possible red card...

Not enough in it for a sending off. We go on.

SUB! Josh Dasilva replaces Ajer.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:50 , Dylan Terry

59 mins: Iwobi is guilty of a late challenge on Henry and Brentford have a free-kick in a dangerous position for Eriksen to deliver into the box.

It’s swung in and goes through everyone before Pickford makes a smart stop to deny the Dane! Good reactions from England’s number one.

Moments later Eriksen sends another cross into the box and Pickford claims.

Eriksen has been everywhere.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:47 , Dylan Terry

56 mins: Oh dear! Eriksen sends another delightful cross which Jensen reaches but his miscued shot is fired straight into the face of teammate Toney! You’ve Been Framed stuff, that.

Everton can’t retain the ball as Brentford come forward yet again. This has been complete one-way traffic since the break. Brentford making the extra man count.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:44 , Dylan Terry

53 mins: Brentford are retaining the ball well at the start of this second half. That will begin to tire Everton as the game goes on. The visitors have had 95 per cent possession since the break!

Eriksen swings a dangerous ball in towards Wissa which Pickford punches away. Then the offside flag goes up.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:42 , Dylan Terry

50 mins: Great play from Richarlison. He drives down the left channel and fizzes a low cross towards Calvert-Lewin but the England international fails to make any contact with the ball.

Brentford come forward as Everton defend a cross into the box and Calvert-Lewin then receives a cheer for getting his head to the clearance. It’s the small things.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:40 , Dylan Terry

48 mins: Whistles ring out around the stadium as Brentford immediately get on the ball and begin knocking it around nicely. Everton keeping them at arm’s length for now.

Ajer eventually tries a high-risk crossfield ball to Henry but the full-back can’t keep it in play and Everton have a goal kick.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:37 , Dylan Terry

46 mins: We are back underway at Goodison Park. The crowd are raucous. Their players are going to have to lean on the supporters in this second half. A tough 45 minutes awaits for the Toffees.

HT: Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:36 , Dylan Terry

SUB! Having been booked and given away a penalty, Sorensen is making way for Vitaly Janelt ahead of the second half.

HT: Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:34 , Dylan Terry

We are about to find out.

HT: Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:30 , Dylan Terry

Here are the goals from the first half. At the end of it all, Everton have a lead to protect as we head into the second period.

Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:28 , Karl Matchett

Another 45’ to come but Everton know this is a huge position for them to be in - see out the win and they are safe.

Half time - Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:22 , Karl Matchett

And there’s the whistle! Half time and it’s 2-1 to Everton, but there was another incident right before the break.

Anthony Gordon went in for a wild tackle and it should have been a foul - not given by the referee yet checked as a possible red card by the VAR.

Interesting takes from the officials.

Anyway, Lampard’s side ahead at the midway point and Thomas Frank very unhappy.

45+2’ - Everton 2-1 Brentford

17:18 , Karl Matchett

GOAL!

Richarlison nets in stoppage time and the home side will be in front at the break! Straight down the middle, nice and high, very well-taken penalty by the Brazilian.

Everton back ahead!

45’ - Everton 1-1 Brentford

17:17 , Karl Matchett

Penalty to Everton!

Sorensen makes an absolute mess of an attempted header, missing the ball and then putting an arm out to pull down Richarlison!

Spot kick immediately given!

42’ - Everton 1-1 Brentford

17:16 , Karl Matchett

Mbeumo and Norgaard both see shooting chances crowded out by the home defence, who are looking increasingly desperate.

The Bees are dominating and shifting the ball quicker since the equaliser - Pickford fists out one strike which is more of a camera save than anything else. Raya at the other end did the same from Gomes a few minutes earlier.

Everton 1-1 Brentford

17:09 , Karl Matchett

GOAL!

37’ - Back on level terms for Brentford before the break - Wissa whips an effort across the face of goal and Coleman’s flicked header sends it past Pickford and in!

Everton couldn’t quite get to the interval with their lead intact.

Everton 1-0 Brentford

17:04 , Karl Matchett

32’ - Richarlison needs some medical attention but is back on the pitch with a bandage around his arm.

Calvert-Lewin is in attack by himself now, Richarlison and Gordon wide in a midfield four, Iwobi pressed into action at right-back in another quartet with Everton down to 10 men.

Everton 1-0 Brentford

16:58 , Karl Matchett

27 ‘ - Norgaard with a cynical foul on Doucoure and that’s a clear yellow card for the Dane.

No real need for Brentford to rush things here - they can bide their time and try to shift Everton’s 10 men around somewhat more than they have so far.

Everton 1-0 Brentford

16:56 , Karl Matchett

23’ - The Toffees being made to work really hard now to keep the ball and move themselves upfield.

Pickford tries to calm his teammates down after a scrappy few minutes.

Everton have just received their 103rd red card in the Premier League era - more than any other team now, one ahead of Arsenal.

Everton 1-0 Brentford

16:51 , Karl Matchett

19’ - RED CARD!

Jarrad Branthwaite is off - it’s a straight red as he hauls down Ivan Toney who is running through on goal.

From massive positive to alarming worry for Frank Lampard’s side who are down to 10 men.

Everton 1-0 Brentford

16:43 , Karl Matchett

9’ - GOAL! Richarlison flicks on a free-kick and it’s straight into the far corner of the Brentford net - possibly via a touch off Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s chest!

That’s a great start for the home side and it might well see the strike to safety.

The officials are having a quick check if it’s handball but Calvert-Lewin says it touched his chest - it’s a goal and it’s 1-0.

Everton 0-0 Brentford

16:35 , Karl Matchett

3’ - Huge chance as Gordon gets between two defenders and shoots - Raya saves, Richarlison gets on the rebound but heads it wide with the goal gaping!

The Brazilian probably should have scored despite a defender in close proximity, while Gordon perhaps might wish he had gone low instead of looping his effort in.

Everton 0-0 Brentford

16:32 , Karl Matchett

Kick-off! We are underway at Goodison Park.

A win will see the Toffees safe for certain this season and the players are greeted by a cloud of blue smoke and a huge roar from the fans.

Leeds snatch last-gasp draw against Brighton to move out of drop zone

16:25 , Karl Matchett

It was just one goal to earn just one point but it could make a world of difference to Leeds’ chances of Premier League survival. Pascal Struijk’s stoppage-time equaliser, fashioned by the magical footwork of young Joe Gelhardt, salvaged a 1-1 draw against Brighton and Hove Albion to send the Elland Road crowd home happy, when they had briefly looked on the edge of mutiny.

Before Struijk’s back-post header, there were chants from the home crowd for the departed Marcelo Bielsa and demands for the board to go the same way as him. While a goal down to Danny Welbeck’s neat first-half finish, Jesse Marsch’s side faced the prospect of being relegated to all intents and purposes before they next kicked a ball.

Their vastly inferior goal difference meant that a win for Burnley at Villa Park on Thursday night would all but end their return to the top flight after only two seasons. Instead, if Burnley lose that game, Leeds’ destiny will be within their own hands. And at full time, there was renewed hope around Elland Road that this side may just have enough about them to avoid the drop.

Despite this marking the end of a three-game run against top-four opponents, this was never going to be straightforward for Leeds. Brighton not only came into this game on the back of two impressive, successive wins against Wolves and Manchester United but had the joint-best away record in the league outside of the top three too. They looked on their way to another three points until Struijk’s late intervention.

The goal owed everything to Gelhardt, who took the ball on the right-hand edge of the penalty box, shimmied around Marc Cucurella and then sat Lewis Dunk down. He still needed to bypass the Brighton captain and so clipped the ball over his body, then lofted a cross to the far post. At a narrowing angle, Struijk nodded in to send Elland Road into raptures. It was the ending Leeds desperately needed after a poor start.

Leeds snatch last-gasp draw against Brighton to move out of relegation zone

Schlupp snatches late leveller for Crystal Palace at Aston Villa

16:15 , Karl Matchett

Substitute Jeffrey Schlupp netted a late equaliser as Crystal Palace secured a 1-1 draw at fellow Premier League mid-table side Aston Villa.

Schlupp, five minutes after coming on, finished from close range in the 82nd minute to cancel out Ollie Watkins’ 69th-minute opener.

Lucas Digne had a strike saved by Jack Butland and Watkins hit a shot wide in stoppage time as a subsequent Villa push to reclaim the lead proved in vain.

The result left Patrick Vieira’s Palace and Steven Gerrard’s Villa still in 11th and 12th place respectively, a point apart.

Everton vs Brentford line-ups

16:07 , Karl Matchett

The final game of the season in a busy Premier League day is Everton vs Brentford!

Here are the line-ups with Calvert-Lewin back in the side and a three-man attack on show for the Bees once more:

Everton XI: Pickford, Mykolenko, Branthwaite, Holgate, Coleman, Doucoure, Andre Gomes, Iwobi, Calvert-Lewin, Richarlison, Gordon

Brentford XI: Raya, Jansson, Bech Sorensen, Henry, Ajer, Eriksen, Jensen, Nørgaard, Toney, Wissa, Mbeumo

15:43 , Jack Rathborn

It’s Mahrez to step up... SAVED!

It’s driven hard by the City forward to Fabianski’s left, a nice height, but it’s powerful, excellent save from the goalkeeper.

What a chance for the champions, we’re approaching stoppage time, still 2-2.

West Ham 2-2 Man City - Penalty to Man City!

15:42 , Jack Rathborn

Anthony Taylor told to review it, not sure why he didn’t spot it at the time.

City pushing for the third and the winner, Fernandinho slashes wide with the ball breaking nicely on the edge of the area.

The referee dismisses the appeals, but Dawson clips him, this should be reviewed by VAR...

15:26 , Jack Rathborn

It’s 2-2, Coufal puts it into his own net, City level!

He senses a City player coming in to convert Mahrez’s delicious cross from the free-kick, but nobody is there.

A poor decision to go for it and his flick beats Fabianski easily to nestle into the bottom corner.

City level, a huge goal!

West Ham 2-1 Man City

15:22 , Jack Rathborn

What a chance!

Antonio is in down the left side. It’s a horror from Fernandinho, dreadful backpass.

West Ham 2-1 Man City

15:19 , Jack Rathborn

Carnage at the back for City again, what are they playing at?

West Ham go long and Laporte is left to deal with it as Ederson rushes out, he passes it to the side.

Antonio is charging to collect it and Bowen fancies a hat-trick too. A lift for the Hammers faithful, back in the game after relentless City pressure.

West Ham 2-1 Man City - GOAL! Grealish!

15:05 , Jack Rathborn

GOAL! Grealish hammers one back for City, 2-1!

Rodri and Soucek compete in the box, you could argue Rodri inadvertently wins the header as it comes off him last and lands perfectly for Grealish on the edge of the area.

Grealish thumps it into the turf and it skips up and zips past Fabianski. Game on!

West Ham 2-0 Man City

15:03 , Jack Rathborn

City straight away on top and causing panic in the West Ham box.

They have to react here or Liverpool will have a huge chance at Southampton on Tuesday.

West Ham 2-0 Man City - GOAL! Bowen again!

14:45 , Jack Rathborn

It’s another for Bowen, 2-0 West Ham!

It’s a super goal, Bowen causing havoc and Zinchenko is sleeping again, he can’t cope with the West Ham winger’s movement off the right wing.

Antonio finds him in behind but there’s more to do here, he composes himself, then drives a low shot through Fernandinho’s legs and past Ederson into the corner.

It’s 2-0 and Liverpool celebrate as much as the Hammers, Guardiola with a huge problem!

West Ham 1-0 Man City

14:43 , Jack Rathborn

Huge five minutes before the break, City stepping it up here.

West Ham in the low block and look comfortable.

Coufal takes out Grealish, who has been clipped multiple times this half. A dangerous area for a free-kick in the 45th minute of the first half.

West Ham 1-0 Man City

14:32 , Jack Rathborn

Bowen in the book after taking out Grealish, who was stretching his legs on the counter down the left.

Laporte strides out after Fernandinho takes out Bowen, but no foul was given.

West Ham 1-0 Man City

14:24 , Jack Rathborn

GOAL! Bowen around Ederson on the break, scoops it in, 1-0!

It’s brilliant from Bowen, and shocking from Zinchenko to leave him sprinting in on goal.

Laporte allowing him to remain offside too, he sprints through and calmly rounds the City goalkeeper and clips it up and over the outstretched Laporte on the goalline. 1-0 and hope for Liverpool in the title race.

14:02 , Jack Rathborn

Man City on top after two minutes, working it down the left, Zinchenko and Grealish combining nicely.

13:50 , Dylan Terry

86 mins: Davies brings down Weghorst on the halfway line and Burnley can lump the ball into the box once more.

13:48 , Dylan Terry

84 mins: Hojbjerg has hit the deck now for Tottenham. There’s a few Spurs players feeling it out there after playing Thursday evening and Sunday lunchtime.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:44 , Dylan Terry

80 mins: SUBS! Barnes and Lowton are replaced by Weghorst and Lennon as Mike Jackson makes a double change. Lennon receives applause from the home fans given his decade with Spurs.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:42 , Dylan Terry

78 mins: Kane picks up the ball on the shoulder of Collins and turns brightly. The pass to Lucas is on over the top but he waits too long to play it and the Brazilian drifts offside.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:40 , Dylan Terry

76 mins: Davies goes down on the edge of the area after trying to slide a pass into Son but referee Kevin Friend is unmoved. It was a long shot, let’s be honest.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:36 , Dylan Terry

72 mins: Hojbjerg slides a pass in for Lucas and he finds Kane who hangs one up to Sessegnon at the back post but he can’t nod it back down for Son.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:36 , Jack Rathborn

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:34 , Dylan Terry

70 mins: Aaron Lennon is warming up now for Burnley. A former Spurs player who spent 10 years at the club between 2005 and 2015. Could he be the spark the visitors need to salvage something from this game?

Davinson Sanchez fires a diagonal ball towards Lucas and the Brazilian gets to it but can’t keep the cross in play.

Delicately poised as we head into the final 20 minutes of this one. Could have huge consequences at both ends of the table.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:32 , Dylan Terry

68 mins: Tottenham are back on the front foot now. Son whips a dangerous ball into the six-yard box and Collins shanks it over the top of his own crossbar. That could have gone anywhere.

66 mins: CLOSE! A great save from Pope denies Spurs a second.

Fine reflexes.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:28 , Dylan Terry

64 mins: The Spurs supporters are really trying to get behind their team now. They know this could be THE crucial 25 minutes in their season.

Lucas tries to send a cross into the middle but Taylor keeps up with him and blocks it away for a Tottenham corner.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:26 , Dylan Terry

62 mins: BURNLEY HIT THE POST! Oh it’s a lovely move from the visitors and they go inches away from equalising!

Collins threads a nice ball to McNeil and he turns it onto Barnes who lets fly from the edge of the penalty area but it cannons back off the post!

Would have been a special goal. Tottenham under the cosh.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:24 , Dylan Terry

60 mins: How long before Mike Jackson makes a change? Wout Weghorst is warming up down on the touchline. He could be an option for the visitors.

Burnley send a free-kick towards the back post and Barnes nods it aimlessly behind for a goal kick.

Ben Davies is now down for Spurs. The hosts could do with a little break in play. It’s been a decent 15 minutes for the relegation-threatened side.

Tottenham 1-0 Burnley

13:22 , Dylan Terry

58 mins: CHANCE! Tottenham nearly doubled their lead.

It starts with Sessegnon pressing Roberts and winning the ball in a dangerous area. He finds Son on the edge of the area and the South Korean lays it off to Kane who fires just over the bar.

It was 20 yards out but you’d have backed Kane to find the corner from there.
