The Head Association gets back to the crease with one more round of coordinates this end of the week as Fulham clashes with Blunt Lampard's Everton side in ...
Everton has lost their last six games and a sum of 85 matches overall away from home in the Head Association in London – more than some other group throughout the entire existence of the opposition. Fulham has won two of their last three matches against Everton – however many victories as they had overseen in the 16 Chief Association games going before this run. Fulham is right now in the seventh spot in the Chief Association standings and has reliably fought at a surprisingly high level up until this point this season.
JORDAN PICKFORD showed why he is going to Qatar as England's number one - as he denied Fulham chief Marco Silva a revenge win over his old team.
It was a top class effort and when the resulting corner was met by Aleksander Mitrovic’s forehead, Pickford produced a flying leap to divert away from the top corner. Not that Everton were without chances of their own in a match that was better than the scoreline suggests. The first, high to his left, denied Willian after the Brazilian - by far the best player on the park - was allowed to spin and strike from 12 yards. Three saves in the space of barely 90 seconds - all inside the first 10 minutes - were testament to Pickford’s athleticism and reactions, the type of stops that will make such a difference when the desert heat is on next month. [Frank Lampard](https://www.thesun.co.uk/who/frank-lampard/) was convinced Aleksandar Mitrovic should have seen red for a first half clash with Idrissa Gueye, the Everton gaffer would have known Pickford was the man to thank for his team’s draw. [Fulham](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/team/1225801/fulham/) side could not find a way past [Pickford](https://www.thesun.co.uk/who/jordan-pickford/) as they were forced to settle for a point.

Report and free match highlights as Aleksandar Mitrovic avoids red card for first-half challenge on Idrissa Gana Gueye before Willian is denied a penalty in ...
"It's a red card for Aleksandar Mitrovic, a strong challenge above the ankle. The save to deny Willian in the first half was stupendous. Now we have the resilience to block things and get in front of things. Silva said afterwards: "Jordan and their defenders deserve credit, they block everything but we did everything to win. "I am proud of my players, we didn't win the game but we played at a very good level. The good news is that last year we would have lost that game - by a couple of goals. Fulham are in good form and you can feel that in the stadium. If it's not a penalty, I don't want to see it given as a penalty against us in the future." We had bright periods in the game but not loads. I just want to see consistency in the future. To be fair, Mitro held his hand up straightaway but I was surprised VAR didn't upgrade it to a red." We controlled the game and pushed them back, we had 13 corners and we created so many moments inside their box, normally we win this game."

Everton need to get him in the game more. Struggled to get into the game. Guilty of giving the ball and fouls away. Went close to giving his side the lead. Everton manager Frank Lampard and his coaching staff, along with a number of Blues players, were left incensed by the challenge. Everton remain in 12th place after earning a share of the spoils. Gave the ball away on a couple of occasions and struggled at times up against Willian. The Everton keeper then voices his frustration at his team-mates for failing to close down Willian's shot. Everton would go on to lose the game 2-0. Had he been shown a red card the face of the game would have changed with the hosts reduced to 10 men for an hour. In fact, he was the game’s best performer by a country mile. Referee John Brooks handed the attacker a yellow card but the incident did go to VAR.
