Burnley had 16 attempts but could not test Jordan Pickford even once, keeping them stuck on just seven home Premier League goals all season – the worst of any side in the division. It said it all that after Zian Flemming hit the post with a glorious chance in the 90th minute, a debatable offside flag went up against him. To make matters worse Burnley lost captain Josh Cullen to a worrying knee injury early in the second half. His efforts won Burnley an early corner but after Pickford failed to gather, Cullen’s shot was blocked and Lucas Pires sent the rebound wide. At the other end Everton substitute Thiero Barry’s first contribution was an angled shot that Dubravka just about stopped before Ekdal hacked clear.
