United continued to offer Everton a way back into the match but they failed to capitalise, something you would not expect Liverpool to struggle with in next weekend’s FA Cup quarter-final. Dwight McNeil volleyed narrowly wide as Everton looked to put that disappointment behind them, with United academy graduate James Garner testing Andre Onana before Amadou Onana mis-hit the follow-up.
Everton were perhaps fortunate not to concede a third penalty before half-time after Vitalii Mykolenko stopped a Garnacho a cutback with an arm. The United skipper saw a low shot tipped around the post by Pickford, who did well to stop United stabbing home during a melee from the corner that followed.
