The Frank Lampard men played Crystal Palace at Goodison Park for the first time since their incredible 3-2 comeback that ensured their survival in the Premier League.

This time, Calvert-Lewin, the game-winning player, started, and he once again managed to score against Palace, it was his first goal of the campaign.

He has scored five Premier League goals against Crystal Palace, his joint-best return against a side in the competition and also against Newcastle.

The Toffees secured the three points, a vital one and at the other end, the Eagles were totally quiet and were not able to find their rhythm in the final third, which will disappoint Patrick Vieira.
