The incident occurred in second-half added time, with Harry Maguire initially penalised for fouling Ashley Young in the box.

Everton will be boosted by the return of Abdoulaye Doucoure against Manchester United, but David Moyes has revealed he is still without “nine or 10” players. Doucoure is available again after serving a one-match suspension as a result of his sending off following the final whistle in the 2-2 draw with Liverpool last week.

Only Liverpool have picked more Premier League points than Everton since David Moyes returned in January, with the league table since his appointment making for remarkable reading. Sean Dyche was sacked shortly after the turn of the year as the Merseyside club lay 16th in the Premier League table.
