'GORDON, WHAT'S THE SCORE?' - WRETCHED RETURN FOR ANTHONY GORDON AS EVERTON LEAVE IT LATE TO BEAT LEGGY NEWCASTLE
Newcastle United suffered a late collapse as Everton ran out 3-0 winners at Goodison Park.
In an evenly-matched contest that was riddled with sloppiness and profligacy in both boxes, it was Magpies, who had soaked up the hosts’ early pressure, who had the first real sighting of goal.
Miguel Almiron, the Paraguayan right-winger, was released by Joelinton after a neat one-two between the Brazilian and Alexander Isak, but Almiron, bearing down on goal, could only muster a tame and rushed effort straight at Pickford.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin, returning to the side after another fitness worry, spurned three chances in as many minutes with two headers and a scuffed shot from the right-hand channel of the penalty area, and the target man continued to make nuisance of himself, pinning the Newcastle central defenders as the hosts looked more direct.
A glancing Isak header on 37 minutes had Jordan Pickford scampering back across his line as he nervously watched it drift narrowly wide of the far post, and Calvert-Lewin blazed another glorious opportunity over the top at the other end as a pumped free-kick forwards from Pickford ricocheted into the path of the England striker, who rashly smashed an effort clear of the crossbar.
Anthony Gordon, the returning pantomime villain, robbed the dallying James Tarkowski on the edge of the area just after the hour, but the winger could only drill his shot straight at Pickford cueing a chorus of boos from the home support.
But finally, the tension and the nervousness of the Evertonians, still furious with the Premier League over their ten-point deduction, was relieved with 11 minutes to play.
Trippier, the evergreen Newcastle captain, stalled in possession, and a determined Dwight McNeil picked his pocket, driving into the open space ahead of the retreating visiting defence. He kept going, and crashed a shot into the far corner to send Goodison into a sea of ecstasy.
It was two with four minutes to go as Martin Dubravka, the stand-in Newcastle goalkeeper, looked to set off a quick counter from an Everton corner, and threw the ball wide for Trippier. The right-back attempted a tired pass back to Jamaal Lascelles, but sold his colleague short, with Jack Harrison bursting onto the scene, and driving towards the byline. The Leeds lonaee found the onrushing Abdoulaye Doucoure via a McNeil swipe, and the midfielder stroked home to double the lead.
There was still time for another goal as the visitors looked leggier and leggier, as the substitute Beto showed Calvert-Lewin how to do it as he powered down the right, with the fatigued Fabian Schar in his wake. He slotted underneath the helpless Dubravka to lift the Toffees out of the relegation zone.

Late, but emphatic Everton joy. Only their third home win in the league for nine months, as a roar greets the final whistle. A huge result for the Toffees. Thanks for joining us, be sure to come back very soon for even more LIVE Premier League action.

GOAL!
Beto sets the seal! It's three, and Newcastle have collapsed. A lovely ball down the right from Patterson finds Beto, who powers towards goal, and the leggy Schar can't keep up with the Portuguese, who slots underneath Dubravka.

ISAK, ROUND PICKFORD...
... a great touch from the Swede, killing the ball dead, but he can't muster the finish under pressure from the recovering Branthwaite.

GOAL!
Another Trippier mistake, and it's two for the Toffees! Dubravka catches the corner and looks to set up a quick counter finding his right-back, but a tired pass back from Trippier sells Lascelles short, and Harrison latches onto it. He drives on, finding McNeil in the penalty area, and the left-winger's half-swipe is into the path of Doucoure, who strokes home!

GOAL!
Finally, the deadlock is broken! Dwight McNeil is the scorer, and it's Kieran Trippier who makes an uncharacteristic mistake! The Newcastle skipper dallies on the ball, McNeil nabs it off him, driving into the open space ahead of the retreating visiting defence, and he smashes it into the far corner!

PICKFORD DOWN
The Everton keeper is getting treatment after a clearing free kick, where he tweaked what seems to be his knee.

TOUGH WATCH STILL
Both defences are remaining resolute. Everton work the ball well down the right as Young crosses, finding Doucoure at the far post. The midfielder knocks it down, but no one is there to pick it up.

SLIGHT TWEAK
Isak is now on the left for the visitors, with Gordon down the middle for the moment.

CAN'T BREAK WITH PURPOSE
Everton are able to burst out of their defensive shape, but a loose ball leftwards from Harrison breaks down the counter. It's been that kind of game.
70'
STILL NO REAL BREAKTHROUGHS
Both sides have had chances, but they're really missing that clinical edge in the final third. That could be telling not just in this game, but in both clubs' seasons.
