Late Jake O’Brien header earns Everton a draw at home to West Ham
O’Brien cancelled out Tomas Soucek’s opener to give David Moyes a point against his old team.
Jake O’Brien’s last-gasp equaliser secured a 1-1 draw with West Ham and extended Everton’s unbeaten run in the Premier League to nine games.
The Toffees were denied a penalty late in the first half following a VAR check and the Hammers took advantage with a fine goal from Tomas Soucek midway through the second period.
Time looked to have run out for the Toffees but right-back O’Brien headed in his second goal in three games as the clock ticked past 90 minutes to earn David Moyes a point against his former side.
Carlos Alcaraz came back into the Everton starting line-up while Graham Potter made three changes from the team beaten by Newcastle on Monday, with Lucas Paqueta, Konstantinos Mavropanos and Emerson all included.
Everton began brightly but it was West Ham who almost took the lead in the 13th minute when Jarrod Bowen’s header hit Jarrad Branthwaite and drew a flying save from Jordan Pickford.
