From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.

Everton were forced to settle for a point as Newcastle dug in to claim a creditable 1-1 draw at Goodison Park.

Everton forward Richarlison cancelled out Salomon Rondon's early strike for the visitors but the hosts paid the price for spurning further gilt-edged chances before the break.

Gylfi Sigurdsson and Cenk Tosun both looked certain to score before being denied by Federico Fernandez and Martin Dubravka respectively.

Everton's pace dropped in the second period as Newcastle sat deep to protect a point and inch a little further away from the Premier League's bottom three. PA

Player to watch:

Yerry Mina. He momentarily broke England hearts at the World Cup this summer and he’s in a dominant mood again with his new club Everton. The defender won man of the match on his debut at Stamford Bridge, and has proved worth the wait after he missed the start of the season. The Colombian is assertive in the air and even loves a goal; he scored three in four games at the World Cup from centre back. Everton were awful at the back last season, but Mina alongside Michael Keane is a defensive partnership with strength and technical ability.

Odds

Everton: 1/2

Draw: 3/1

Newcastle: 6/1

Prediction

Everton to win 2-0

​A commendable point away from home for Newcastle, holding Everton 1-1 at Goodison Park. Salomon Rondon's early strike was canceled out by Richarlison's leveller before half time.

Jose Mourinho is getting increasingly infuriated, marching from the bench to the technical area and back.He apologises to a child in the crowd after spooking him with a rather violent kick of a wall. 

Unai Emery is playing his part, too. Plenty of shouting and hand gestures as the rain falls in Manchester.

It feels like Lucas Torreira has committed about seven different bookable offences this evening, but the diminutive destroyer has only just gone into Andre Marriner's book.

Marouane Fellaini is pushed further forward.

Interesting...

David De Gea is nonchalantly holding the ball in one hand, directing traffic ahead of him, and Alexandre Lacazette nods it out of the Spaniard's grasp.

The French striker slots into the empty net, but Andre Marriner says no goal.

What a finish from Henrikh Mkhitaryan, but he's offside!

David De Gea makes a superb save from Lucas Torreira's powerful shot, parrying it to Mkhitaryan, who had fed Torreira from the byline.

He crisply volleys in from the tightest of angles but is clearly offside.

Four added minutes.

Full time at Wembley. A comfortable home win for Spurs, who may well have gone third. A late Southampton consolation from Charlie Austin the only blemish in a 3-1 victory.

Harry Latham-Coyle5 December 2018 21:53

That's that at Old Trafford. 2-2. It was a scrappy affair, with Arsenal twice taking the lead and Manchester United producing near-instantaneous replies. Wet and a little bit wild - a draw.
