Everton players missed the opportunity to potentially ensure their survival in the Premier League. They lost at Goodison Park in the match of the 37th round against Brentford (2: 3) and thus remained only two points above the line. Frank Lampard’s team shot themselves in the knees, as they finished the game with only nine men, and captain Seamus Coleman ‘helped’ the guests with an own goal in the 37th minute.19 – Jarrad Branthwaite (19) is the first teenager to receive a red card in a Premier League game for Everton since a 17-year-old Wayne Rooney in December 2002 against Birmingham. Knocks.— OptaJoe (@OptaJoe) May 15, 2022 Toffies remains 16th with 36 points, Leeds has one less and one game more, Burnley has played the same number of matches as the team from Liverpool and with two points less is in the danger zone. The Clarets will play at Villa Park on May 19, and in the last round (May 22) they will host Newcastle. Everton are waiting for the duel with Crystal Palace at Goodison (May 19), while they close the season at the Emirates against Arsenal. Leeds will play the last match against Brentford away.It started great for the host. Dominique Calvert Lewin, with the help of Richarlison, gave the advantage to Lampard’s team in the 10th minute. Only eight minutes later, young Jarod Branthwaite commits a foul as the last defensive player, stops the rival in goal chance and receives a direct red card to the dismay of the packed Goodison Park.
Player less Toffies hanged on until the 37th minute. After Wissa’s shot from the edge of the box, Everton captain Seamus Coleman, turned the ball into his own goal. However, deep in injury time, home fans were jubilant again. Richarlison was knocked down in the penalty area, the referee looked at the video and then pointed to the spot. The Brazilian took over the responsibility and returned the advantage to Everton. But that was the second and the last lead of the game for the home team, as Wissa’s master strike and Henry’s header turned the game over. Everton tried to at least equalize, but when Salomon Rondon came in and received a straight red card because of the horror tackle just 4 minutes later, it was over.PREMIER LEAGUE – Round 37SundayTottenham – Burnley 1-0 (1-0)/Kane 45+8 pen/Aston Villa – Crystal Palace 1-1 (0-0)/Watkins 69 – Schlupp 81/Leeds – Brighton 1-1 (0-1)/Struijk 90+2 – Welbeck 21/Watford – Leicester 1-5 (1-2)/Pedro 6 – Maddison 18, Vardy 22, 70, Barnes 46, 86/Wolverhampton – Norwich 1-1 (0-1)/Nouri 55- Pukki 37/West Ham – Man.City 2-2 /Bowen 24, 45 – Grealish 49, Coufal (og) 69/Everton – Brentford 2-3 (2-1)/Calvert-Lewin 10, Richailson (p) 45-+ – Coleman (og) 37, Wissa 62, Henry 64/Monday22.00: (4.10) Newcastle (3.50) Arsenal (1.94)Tuesday21.45: (8.00) Southampton (5.10) Liverpool (1.42)***odds are subject to change
