The Everton players shared the points with Tottenham in the 11th round of the Premier League, and the game ended without goals.
The Spurs, who were taken over by the Italian expert Antonio Conte last week, looked pale. In the first half, only Everton had one shot on goal, while Tottenham only created the first big chance in the end, but Sergio Reguilón missed the goal.
During the second part of the game, the bad game of the guests continued, but the host was not overly dangerous either. It was played in the 63rd minute when Tottenham goalkeeper Hugo Lloris started carelessly, and the main referee pointed to the white dot. However, in consultation with VAR, the penalty was annulled.
There was no excitement until the end of the game, and Everton was left with a player less in the referee’s time compensation. Mason Holgate committed a foul on Chris Cavanagh from the VAR’s footage and showed a direct red card for the home team player.
The match ended in a draw, Tottenham was disastrous in attack, they didn’t even send a single shot into Everton’s goal, and on the other hand, the Liverpool team didn’t threaten much.
The Spurs are the ninth-placed team, and in the previous part of the season, they won 16 points, while the “Caramels” are two places below with one less point.
Tottenham will meet Leeds in the next round, while Everton will face a difficult task in Manchester, where they are visiting City.
Arsenal celebrated at home against Watford with a minimal advantage of 1: 0. Mikel Arteta’s team recorded their fourth tied victory.
Arsenal dominated during the entire duel. In the first part of the game, they could have taken the lead early, when Bukayo Saka “shook” the net in the seventh minute, but the goal was justifiably annulled due to offside.
In the 35th minute, Danny Rose committed a foul in the penalty area, and Kevin Friend was sentenced to the most severe penalty. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang took responsibility, but his shot from the penalty spot was defended by the experienced Ben Foster, who also defended Gabriel’s goal after the corner until the end of the first half.
Arsenal was not so dangerous in the continuation, but they managed to celebrate in the match. In the 56th minute, Emile Smith Rowe shot after the deduction, and from the edge of the penalty area, he beat the goalkeeper of Watford for 1: 0. Then the final result was set, and by the end of the game, there were no great chances that would change the course of the match.
In the next round, Mikel Arteta’s team will visit Liverpool, while Watford will meet Manchester United.
Leeds and Leicester shared the points (1: 1) on “Elan Road”. Everything was resolved in the first half.
Marcelo Bielsa’s team took the lead in the 26th minute when Rafinha took a masterfully free-kick and hit the left post. Experienced Kasper Schmeichel could do nothing. Just two minutes later, Lester equalized.
Midfielder Harvey Barnes accepted Boubakary Soumaré’s pass and then shot hard from the edge of the penalty area. Young goalkeeper Illan Meslier failed to defend his great shot and Leicester equalized.
The guests could win in the 67th minute when Ademola Lookman “shook” the net, but Darren England, with the help of VAR technology, annulled the goal.
Both teams were not specific in the continuation, so the game ended in a draw.
Leeds will visit Tottenham in the next round, while Leicester will meet Chelsea.
