Everton hit two late goals to beat Crystal Palace at Goodison Park.

The Toffees endured a frustrating afternoon and had Jordan Pickford to thank for saving Luka Milivojević’s second-half penalty.

Substitutes Dominic Calvert-Lewin and Cenk Tosun then scored late goals to seal all three points. Relive the match below.

It’s a big game for…

Patrick van Aanholt: The Dutchman delivered a poor performance against Wolves, giving the ball away cheaply at times and he was beaten far too easily by Matt Doherty’s movement for the goal. With the likes of Theo Walcott, Bernard and Richarlison providing both pace and excellent movement up front, Roy Hodgson will hope his limited exertions with the Netherlands have given him sufficient time to come back refreshed.

Best stat…

7: Gylfi Sigurdsson has contributed to seven goals in his last six Premier League starts against Crystal Palace. The 29-year-old Icelandic midfielder has scored three goals and registered four assists in that time against the London club.

Player to watch…

Bernard: The Brazilian has had to bide his time at Goodison Park, making just one substitute appearance in his first month on Merseyside. However, the former Shakhtar Donetsk winger was superb against Leicester, setting up Richarlison for Everton’s opener after jinking past two defenders, while showing similar skill on various other occasions. Bernard did not shy away from his defensive duties either, and those are ominous signs for Palace as the summer signing’s confidence increases.

1 minute

Townsend definitely seems to have started in a central role. It looks like a narrow 4-4-2 for the away side with McArthur and Schlupp in the wide areas.

2 minutes

Mamadou Sakho goes down in a heap after an aerial challenge with Richarlison. He's not best pleased about it but the Brazilian goes unpunished.

3 minutes

First attack of the afternoon. The ball is played out to Bernard on the left hand side. He cuts in and looks certain to get a shot on goal, but an attempted back heel to Digne doesn't come off and the attack breaks down.

4 minutes

A spell of possession for Everton ends in an overhit cross from Gylfi Sigurdsson.

6 minutes

The first of what could be plenty of fouls on Zaha this afternoon. He turns well inside the Everton half and wins his side a free-kick.

7 minutes

The free-kick is played in deep towards James Tomkins. His knock down comes to nothing and Kouyate gives away a silly foul.

9 minutes

A first corner of the afternoon for Everton is cleared away by Palace. The home side are looking to build a spell of possession.

10 minutes

There's our first shot. The ball falls to Coleman just outside the Palace box but his shot flies over the bar.

11 minutes

Appeals for a foul just outside the Palace box are waved away by the referee. Jordan Pickford goes long to Richarlison in a way reminiscent of the way he picked out Harry Kane for England in midweek. The forward goes down but nothing is given.

13 minutes

Chance for Everton. Richarlison picks up a loose ball after Idrissa Gueye won the ball in midfield. He drives at the Palace defence but runs straight into trouble. He had options and will be disappointed that he didn't do better there.
