Burnley 1-1 Everton: Calvert-Lewin nets in first ever EPL draw between sides

Published on: 05 December 2020

Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored his 11th league goal of the season as Everton drew 1-1 at Burnley in the first Premier League draw between the two sides.

Both sides went into the game struggling for form and points, but it was Burnley who took the lead inside three minutes through Robbie Brady's superb low strike for his first goal since December 3 2019.

Everton improved after switching to Carlo Ancelotti's preferred 4-3-3 formation following an injury to Fabian Delph, and they were rewarded as Richarlison and Calvert-Lewin linked up with the latter poking home a cross (45+3) for his 16th goal for club and country in all competitions.

Both sides lacked a cutting edge in the second period but had their chances to win it. James Rodriguez forced a flying save from Nick Pope early in the half before Chris Wood did the same against Jordan Pickford as the game drew to a close.

Burnley remain in 19th on six points, level with West Brom and a point behind 17th-placed Fulham. Everton move up one place to seventh ahead of the remaining Premier League games this weekend.
