Everton were neck and neck with Manchester City for a large part of this contest, behind for only five minutes in the opening half. Richarlison touched in Everton’s equaliser after Lucas Digne’s shot clattered into the post to cancel out Phil Foden’s deflected opener.
When Riyad Mahrez restored City's lead 18 minutes after half-time, though, Carlo Ancelotti’s side were unable to draw level a second time. They remained firmly in the game, manager Ancelotti making changes of personnel and formation in a bid to find a way back. Ultimately, though, Bernardo Silva’s goal with 13 minutes remaining left Everton with too much to do.
