Leno gets low and denies Deeney as he tries to convert a curling free kick. That's some way to mark your first Premier League appearance.
Everton 0-0 Fulham
Everton win a penalty after Odoi is judged to bring down Calvert-Lewin, the referee initially waved away the protests but the linesman gives it.
Sigurdsson steps up and slams a shot from 12 yards off the crossbar. Goodison is in a state of shock!
Everton 1-0 Fulham
Gylfi Sigurdsson makes up for his penalty miss moments ago and given Everton the lead.
It's a brilliant first time finish with his left foot to send the ball curling into the net. That's some technique from the Icelandic international.
