Arteta calls for Arsenal stars to show passion and enthusiasm in 'most beautiful part of the season’

Dominic Calvert-Lewin ended a 23-game goal drought as he scored a late penalty to give struggling Everton a 1-1 Premier League draw at Newcastle United, who will rue several missed opportunities in a match they largely dominated.

Everton were awarded the spot-kick when Ashley Young was hauled to the floor by Newcastle defender Paul Dummett, who had only just come onto the pitch, and Calvert-Lewin thrashed the ball into the net.

Alexander Isak had earlier scored for the fifth home game in a row for Newcastle after being played behind the Everton defence by Harvey Barnes, the Swede showing great composure to evade the challenges of James Tarkowski and Jarrad Branthwaite.

Everton, who are facing the potential of a second points deduction this season for a breach of Profit and Sustainability rules, stay in 16th place with 26 points from 30 games, four points above the relegation zone, while Newcastle are in eighth with 44 points from 30 games.

McNeil chips in the corner but it's rather flat and is cleared away. Everton have come out more strongly in this half, offering more in the opposition box. Tarkowski fires in a long ball but Onana, surrounded by Newcastle defenders, can't get his head to it and it sails behind.

Pickford takes the free-kick and sends it flying down towards the Newcastle box but the danger is cleared easily. Everton have a corner...

Guimaraes opts to leave a ball in his own penalty area and Beto launches towards it, sliding it on an approaching Dubravka. The keeper gets to it without much hassle but seems to clip his gloves on the Everton man in the process. Further up the pitch, Burn shoves McNeil over and concedes a free-kick.

Branthwaite chucks a long ball in the vague direction of Doucoure, approaching a near-empty Newcastle box, but Everton don't have the pace at the moment to make anything of it.

Almost a very embarrassing moment for Everton! Newcastle have a corner and the box is rammed. Tarkowski tries to clear but kicks it backwards onto his own post! It bounces away but wow, that could have been a disastrous start to this half!

No changes at the break. Everton nick possession early on and Young hoofs a cross in towards Beto, but it doesn't quite find the target. A minute later Beto goes down in the box thanks to a shirt-pull by Schar but the ref is stone-faced to his appeals.

Everton need to turn this around quickly, and while they've threatened on the break, Newcastle haven't looked too troubled by their efforts so far. Worryingly for the visitors, they haven't won any of their last 25 Premier League games when trailing at half-time. They also failed to have a shot on target in that entire half - let's see if Dyche's half-time pep talk has any effect...

Newcastle are 1-0 up at the break! Both sides have had chances, but the hosts - roared on by the crowd - have looked much the brighter, led by star player Isak, who showed his worth with a brilliant strike in the opening 15 minutes. The Magpies have controlled the game well, with 62 per cent of possession compared to Everton's 38, and an xG of 1.37 to the Toffees' 0.47.
