Southampton vs Everton LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction

Everton earn a corner following a quick break with Mangala. He fed the ball wide to Mykolenko, who attempted a low cross, only to see it get blocked and go behind. The resulting corner results in nothing yet again.

There was a brief pause to the action as Young wiped his mouth and had a drink. He had cut his lip after a coming together, but he is back on the pitch now.

Calvert-Lewin breaks into the Southampton box on the left side, but his cross only meets the feet of Stephens, who clears without a challenge. There is a common theme between these two sides of having no support available for their strikers.

Everton defend a Southampton corner without worry, and the game continues in midfield, where possession is turned over multiple times. Neither team can seemingly find any attacking inspiration.

St. Mary’s is oddly quiet, other than a few bursts of noise here and there. Southampton fans don’t have a lot to shout or sing about at the moment, so a goal could really lift the atmosphere.

Calvert-Lewin stretches for a loose ball against Bednarek, who goes down inside his own half. The referee gives nothing, and Bednarek returns to his feet.

Gueye breaks down the left, following a fast Everton break, but once again there is no one else to support him. He is forced inside, where he tries a pass inwards, but he gives the ball away under pressure.

Yellow Card James Alan Tarkowski

Ndiaye tries a left-footed shot from outside the box, following a corner. He struck the ball rather hurriedly and sent the effort high and wide of the goal.

Forty-five per cent of the play has been in the middle third of the pitch, highlighting how much both sides are struggling to move the ball forward.
