Match Thread Everton 2-2 Liverpool. Wednesday February 12th . 7.30 pm

That's the first time in a long time an Everton team went to the wire and didn't let themselves get bullied.

They stuck at it, didn't let the rs overpower them and got their rewards.

More than anything, that's a key ingredient Moyes tends to get right and it was there for all to see last night.

We've got multiple injuries, stretched to the brim, they had 100m+ of striker talent to bring on and they barely had a sniff. It wasn't a backs to the wall point either

We have got our Everton back. Hunger, aggression, players and fans working as one.

Beto and composure is rapidly becoming a reality.

I've not seen anyone comment on the divine intervention that happened for our equaliser - with the Harrison cross hitting Szoboszlai, then pinging into Mykolenko's shoulder and somehow bouncing for him to get the cross in for the goal.

Astonishing sequence of events.

This Guardian article is a far better view than the dodgy J Liew effort this morning

This has been a testing time on a personal level but watching the euphoria at Goodison reminded me of how the game can liberate

What a brilliant piece this is.

I've only been to Goodison a handful of times. Took a trip earlier this year to say goodbye, and take a quick look at Bramley Moore too.
That trip cemented my thoughts all along. Goodison has played a huge part of our history. It's sad to leave, but we must look to the future and the new stadium is truly something to be excited about.

Seeing it rocking last night though...and there are only 6 more to go. It really brought it home.

Great words.

ChatGPT estimates we've played 3596 home games, which you'd need 720 hands to count the number of games.

Next week we're down to a single, final hand! Crazy and sad but so exciting and positive for our future.

... and another example of the countless times players surrounded the ref whinging.

The

There's reds in my work that always say "good morning" and usually chat. Not even looked at me yet . As if I'm responsible

Red in the next office has still not spoken to me. Honestly, its hilarious.

You have to hand it to the RS, they certainly know how to make us laugh The nonsense their fans spout is wonderful comedy.

About 50s.

Gueye Y
Lindstrom Y
Doucoure Y + Y = R

bradley Y
robertson Y
jones Y + Y = R

Felt like there was a lot more to the indiscipline of the game than the story the cards tell.

Dirty, cheating feckers.

From elsewhere.

"Slot is getting more Klopp like every week.

New huge gnashers and a baseball cap next season."

"Slopp!"
