A desperately unlucky Ashley Young own goal six minutes from time was the only way a tireless Everton could be denied another victory as the Blues had to settle for a 1-1 draw against high-flying Brighton at Goodison Park.
Vitalli Mykolenko's seventh-minute opener looked enough for Sean Dyche's men to make it six wins from their past eight matches as they put in another resolute display packed with heart and character – combined with a constant threat on the counter.
But just as they looked to have seen off Brighton's attackers with a fourth clean sheet in five, Karoru Mitoma's cross took a horrible deflection off Young to beat Jordan Pickford.
