Your support helps us to tell the story

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. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

82 minutes 

Dominic Calvert-Lewin checks back on to his left foot after a strong run from Gylfi Sigurdsson down the left, Angelo Ogbonna's toe nicking the ball to concede another corner.

Thundered against the crossbar!

Richarlison arrives like a steam train on to a more whipped style corner and meets it with the force of a prize-fighter's punch, the ball flashing towards goal, Lukasz Fabianski only reacting after the ball has already refunded back off his crossbar.

Marco Silva finally makes his first change.

Gylfi Sigurdsson looks fatigued as he is applauded off by the travelling support.

Tom Davies takes the Icelandic playmaker's place.

The crowd is now, at best, half-full, or half-empty, depending upon your outlook on life.

West Ham fans continue to head for the exits in great number. 

A showing completely devoid of life.

Everton can just walk past the West Ham midfield again. Lucas Digne rattles the legs again, and it will be another corner for the visitors. 

Cenk Tosun may be joining us in the near future.

He smiles as he trots off.

And Tosun is immediately involved, brought down in the West Ham box but only after the flag has been raised for offside.

I don't think Angelo Ogbonna knew that, though. The Italian is lucky.

Theo Walcott will see through the stoppage time period in the place of Richarlison, a period that will be...

Twice Michael Keane gets his head to West Ham crosses.

Michail Antonio miscontrols the ball from inside the box to out of play on the left wing.

Everton throw.
