Alan Shearer and Gary Lineker baffled by ‘terrible’ decision in Everton’s win over Crystal Palace

Everton finally converted a lead into three points with a 2-1 win over Crystal Palace on Saturday afternoon.

It has been an incredibly frustrating start to the Premier League season for the Toffees after losing successive games to Bournemouth and Aston Villa despite leading 2-0 in both.

But Sean Dyche‘s side finally picked up their first league win of the 2024/25 campaign on Saturday after Dwight McNeil scored a second-half brace.

The visitors had taken the lead through Marc Guehi after just 10 minutes but this time it was Everton‘s turn to come from behind and they rallied at half-time before putting on a much-improved performance after the break.

The Toffees defender jumped into a challenge just inside the penalty box as Mateta was lining up to shoot.
