STAT: Maarten Stekelenburg scored his first own goal of his senior career (all competitions).

Ayala has his arm on Barkley’s shoulder in the box but no shirt tugging so no penalty.

The game has suddenly become twice the spectacle it was from the drab affair of the opening 15 minutes.
27'
It was Stekelenburg, not Barry, who was booked earlier. Kicking the ball away in frustration.

Looks like Barry wasn’t booked earlier after the Boro goal. A TV feed mistake.

GOAL EVERTON! And guess what? It’s Gareth Barry who slams home goal number 52 on his 600th PL appearance.

It has been given as a goalkeeping own goal. So surely it was a foul for the challenge? Anyway, Everton feel aggrieved and are on the attack.

GOAL MIDDLESBROUGH! Negredo looks to have bundled the ball in, illegally challenging Stekelenburg. Looks like a foul but the goal is given.

Now Mirallas tries out Valdes’ hands but his shot along the ground is easily gathered.

Applause for Ross Barkley as he breaks up a Boro attack and sets Everton on the counter. It comes back to him and he fires a left footed shot that Valdes is forced to parry.

Barry gives it away to Ramirez and nearly gives away a chance on his big day but Stekelenburg is out to claim.

Bolasie forces a corner and the big guns come forward as a group. Flicked on be Jagielka and he doesn’t catch it cleanly. Off his left shoulder and out.
12'
Everton started sluggishly against Sunderland but then swept them away with a second half blitz. Similar start here today.
