GOOD SAVE! It's a wonderful pass from Gomes on the left as he switches it out to Harrison down the right. He carries it into the box before drilling a low shot towards the far bottom corner, but Vicario gets down quickly to block it.

Emerson just isn't tracking Harrison's runs down the right and he has space to pull it back to Gomes this time. The substitute flicks it onto Mykolenko, but he wasn't expecting it and it bounces off his shin and wide of the post.

Everton are starting to get a lot of joy down their right side now, and Harrison pulls it back to pick out Garner on the edge of the D once more. He puts his laces through the shot, but Vicario gets down to hold it at his near post.

It's another good run by Patterson down the right, but his pullback is just behind Gomes. Mykolenko meets it at the far post, but as he slides in, he hits his shot against another ball that's been thrown back onto the pitch.

Branthwaite goes long over the top and Calvert-Lewin has a Spurs defender on either side of him, with Vicario also rushing off his line. The forward pokes it away before the keeper clumsily catches his shin with his arm, but the referee gives a quick shake of his head.

It's better from Everton here as they patiently work it upfield, but it's all in front of Spurs at the moment. McNeil tries to open up some space down the left, but Porro doesn't give him any freedom.

Spurs have had 74 per cent possession so far, but they're just starting to get a little complacent in their own half. Emerson gives it away this time, but luckily for him, Davies is behind him to get it away.

It's a sloppy pass out from the back by Vicario, and Calvert-Lewin stretches to cut it out before spreading it to Harrison. His cross is cut out by Romero, but his clearance is only as far as Garner on the edge of the D. His volley is straight at the keeper.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Everton
Richarlison has now scored four goals in his last three games, doubling his tally from his first 39 appearances for Spurs (two). He's now the 13th different player to score against Everton in the Premier League having previously played for them in the competition.
