Goodison 1903 -
For @AlanWhittle -
Everton were playing with great spirit now, going all out for an equaliser and the Arsenal defence was under severe pressure. With 20 minutes left, Whittle scored a splendid goal for the equaliser Everton had been fighting so hard to get. Although the penalty area was full of Arsenal defenders, Whittle's splendid shot from just outside the area beat them all and Wilson, possibly unsighted, made no attempt to save. The ball appeared to strike an Arsenal defender in flight just sufficiently to put Wilson off. The tension was quite incredible now and with it tempers began to rise. There were a lot of physical clashes and Everton's spirit in this fighting recovery could not be faulted. A weak clearance by West enabled Gould to collect the ball but he shot into the side netting —a real let off for the Everton 'keeper. Royle and Roberts had had a testing physical duel all through the match and the referee annoyed the Everton crowd with some of his decisions. West was having anything but a happy time. Attempting to punch out from a corner, he deflected the ball on to the crossbar where it went for another corner. Hurst and been Everton's best player and had done particularly good work this half at Everton improved 100 per cent. Roberts saved on the line from Husband's shot as Everton piled everything on for a late winner. Official attendance 48,566. -
