Everton vs Man City LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction tonight

57 mins: Save! Jordan Pickford to the rescue for Everton after Bernardo Silva comes in from the right and slides a pass over to Phil Foden. Foden hits a shot at goal with his first touch and opens up his left foot. He strikes it well but Pickford dives to his left and palms the ball away!

54 mins: Man City win a corner and whip the ball into the box. It gets headed out to Richarlison who flicks the ball over Rodri then runs into Ruben Dias and wins a free kick for Everton deep in his own half.

Dias isn’t happen about that decision saying Richarlison initiated the contact but the referee isn’t buying it.

51 mins: An Everton counter attack sees Doucoure, Richarlison and Iwobi sprint up the pitch. Doucoure carries the ball and slots it over to the left wing for Richarlison. He runs into trouble and squares the ball to Iwobi who has the keep it away from four defenders with no passing options and understandably loses possession.

48 mins: Chance! Raheem Sterling loses the ball in the middle of the pitch and Allan takes over. He flicks it over the high City line and plays Richarlison into the box. His runs seems good as the offside flag stays down allowing him to take a touch and guide a shot to the far bottom corner. Ederson it off his line quickly to narrow that gap and manages to stop the ball with an outstretched leg. Then the offside flag goes up so it wouldn’t have counted anyway.

Kick off: Everton get the match back underway. They’ve got 45 minutes to keep up their first half tempo and maybe sneak a victory against Man City.

No changes from either manager at the break.

Matty Cash sent a message of support to a Poland team-mate stranded in Ukraine after scoring the opening goal in Aston Villa’s 2-0 win at Brighton.

The Villa full-back broke the deadlock with a fine early finish before taking off his shirt to reveal a “stay strong” message to Dynamo Kiev defender Tomasz Kedziora, receiving a caution in the process.

Ollie Watkins then scored his first goal since December in the 68th minute to wrap up Villa’s victory.

With just over 52 minutes played in sunlit west London, as Brentford’s 10 men reckoned with a 2-0 defeat that will have huge implications on their Premier League survival, Christian Eriksen emerged from the shadow that has dominated the past eight months of his life.

If the horrifying images of his collapse last summer had already been banished from Eriksen’s own mind, they remained intact for those who were fortunate enough to witness the midfielder’s return here.

This was a moment that was impossible to envisage then, when the unimportance of a football match was thrust so jarringly into perspective, and felt no less astonishing now as Eriksen ran onto the pitch and past the memories that threatened to define him.

Amid all the emotion around his return, there remained a residual sense of apprehension that couldn’t be extinguished until this moment. There is still the small defibrillator fitted in Eriksen’s chest as a permanent assurance.

He unwillingly represents the innate fear hidden within all of us that the lives we build can be upended at a moment’s notice – a fact that could hardly be more pronounced in the world right now. And it is a beautiful contradiction that while football can be so utterly irrelevant, here it also represented such a meaningful escape.

Each time the ball arrived at Eriksen’s feet, with his presence alone restoring an urgency to Brentford’s ailing attack, it was no longer about miracles but simply the stakes of the match – the return to normality he has craved most of all.

Burnley boss Sean Dyche praised the mentality of his team after they fought back to earn a 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace and make it a seven-point week.

Jeffrey Schlupp fired the hosts ahead after nine minutes in south London and the Clarets at this point looked to be struggling after vital but taxing recent wins over Brighton and Tottenham.

The visitors came out with more belief after the break and equalised within 40 seconds after Eagles captain Luka Milivojevic deflected Aaron Lennon’s cross into his own net to ensure both teams had to settle for a 12th draw in the Premier League this season.

It may still be the case that Manchester United have only lost once since the 4-1 defeat at Vicarage Road which led to Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s sacking last November and Ralf Rangnick’s subsequent appointment on an interim basis, but draws like this are slowly eroding hope of playing in next season’s Champions League.

Solskjaer’s conquerors Watford, under new management themselves, will celebrate this goalless draw at Old Trafford as one of the highlights of their season, even if the point does little to help Roy Hodgson’s side in their battle against the drop. For United, it was yet another afternoon when they had their chances but did not take them.

United remain fourth, two points clear of fifth-place Arsenal, but have played three games more. This was the fifth draw in 13 league games under Rangnick, the sixth time they have failed to win, and worryingly, this visit from a side second-bottom in the Premier League table could be viewed as the last fixture in a favourable run dating all the way back to his arrival.

Goalless between Everton and Man City at half-time. Who will go on to win this game?
