That is all we have time for on Tribe as Aston Villa earn a hard-fought three points at Goodison Park. I have been Elliot Thompson and thank you for joining me. Stay with us on Tribe as the North London derby has around 20 minutes of action left. Arsenal are currently leading that one.
It wasn't to be for David Moyes today as yet again Everton's Achilles heel is their attacking quality. In the first half, they were quite open but fashioned out a couple of big chances for Calvert-Lewin. On the left side of the box, he volleyed just wide of the right post. Then just before the break he had a shot cleared away on the line by Kamara because the strike was too weak. Moyes threw Beto on and went to a back three in the latter stages trying to rescue a point. That change gave Calvert-Lewin a massive opening in the last minute. Lindstrom squared it to him on the right side. From around six yards out he scuffed the shot over the bar. Everton remain in 16th place and just one point above the dropzone. Next up they have a home league game against Tottenham.
ASTON VILLA RUIN THE DAVID MOYES RETURN! Unai Emery is the manager on the side with a smile as his side ends their torrid winless run away from home. They had the better chances in the first half. Watkins placed the ball wide when through and Ramsey missed by just an inch with a shot near the penalty area. In the second half, it didn't take long for Watkins to put that miss behind him. Rogers put him through in a central position. He saw Pickford come a long way off his line so hit the shot low and hard into the bottom left corner. After that goal, Villa decided to drop deep and defend as they knew Everton would struggle to create chances. They did exactly that as Martinez was not forced into any difficult positions. So Aston Vill move up to seventh with that win. They are now just two points behind Chelsea in fourth and have a difficult away game against Arsenal up next.

WHAT A CHANCE! Pickford sends a free-kick long. It comes to Lindstrom on the right side of the box. He takes it past Digne then sends in a bouncing cross to Calvert-Lewin. From around six yards out Calvert-Lewin sends his shot over the bar on his right foot. That was the one he had to score!
90+2'
SAVE! Tarkowksi from a central area lofts a cross into Mangala on the left side of the box. Mangala chests the ball down and volleys at goal on his right foot. The ball deflects off Konsa making it easy for Martinez to catch.

Watkins fails to keep the ball in on the left wing. O'Brien throws it long down the line. Beto battles for it but he loses out to Mings. He kicks it aimlessly out of play. O'Brien yet again throws long but this time Beto fouls Buendia as he tries to win the header. This one looks like it is heading towards defeat for Everton.
86'
Ndiaye holds off Cash on the left wing. He passes inside to Gueye who moves the ball out wide to Lindstrom on the right. Lindstrom floats a cross towards the box but the referee blows his whistle for a foul from Calvert-Lewin on Mings. That annoys the crowd as any momentum fades away for Everton.

David Moyes has made a double change now as Ashley Young has gone off Jake O'Brien. Also in attack, Abdoulaye Doucoure has come off for Beto. It looks like a three at the back now for Everton with Lindstrom at right-wing back.
