Them when he mightjust save their season. this was his second goal in two years. for him and his club is desperately needed. everton had won just once in 15 league games, run like that mean even save skate celebrations. forest new with defeat they would be one point clear of trouble and three times they claimed they should have had a spot but those were turned down. with this one, everton are clear of the drop zone. they have had eight points taken off in but now they see a to safety. off them. manager nuno espirio santo was asked about the three appeals after the game. and he was equally critical of the officials. some very poor decision of anthony taylor, very poor decision of var.
Poor decision of var. it s difficult to tell the players to ignore and keep on going because it s very clear. as a club we made a formal complaint saying that we would like to change the var situation they didn t do it and then it was here to see so it s not good. aston villa have moved a step closer to finishing in a champions league spot after coming from behind to beat bournemouth 3 1. villa conceeded a penalty in the first half hour, but then scored three to ensure unai emery s side remain in 4th, 6 points clear of tottenham, who have 2 games in hand. there were seven goals in the crystal palace match against west ham with oliver glasner s side scoring four in the first half hour, as they thrashed the hammers 5 2 at selhurst park. jean philippe mateta getting two of the palace goals. they re now 14th in the league after this win and last week s against liverpool.

There were four games in the premier league today with liverpool taking all three points home from craven cottege after they beat fulham 3 1. the vistors went ahead after trent alexander arnold curled in a superb free kick, but timmothy castagne levelled, before ryan gravenberch scored his first premier league goal, and diogojota sealed the win for liverpool. next up for liverpool is everton in a merseyside derby on wednesday night. there was some controversy after the early match. nottingham forest were dealt a blow in their fight to stay in the premier league, losing 2 0 to everton. but they were so furious at three penalty appeals being turned down that they tweeted an astonishing post, accusing the var official of being a luton fan, therefore having a vested interest in forest dropping points. here is that tweet in full.
Great fa cup comebacks. it started with 20 minutes left of normal time. when ellis sims got things going for coventry. his goal made it 3 1. ten minutes later it was 3 2 through callum 0 hara. you could see manchester united were starting to feeljittery. deep into stoppage time, coventry city were awarded a penalty after a manchester united handball. step forward right who coolly made it 3 3 from the penalty spot. cue pandemonium amongst the coventry fans. into extra time where coventry fans. into extra time where coventry city had a couple of fantastic chances to snatch victory, they hit the bar and also had a goal ruled out by var right at the end of extra time but it went to a penalty
