Verdict from Joe Thomas after Everton beat Burnley 3-0 at Goodison Park to set-up a Carabao Cup quarter-final showdown at home to Marco Silva's Fulham
If last week felt like a cruel test destined to forge a siege mentality, this week Everton have shown this is a club that is up for the battle ahead.
That the third, in stoppage time, came just after murmurs of a well-known song about heading to Wembley, tells its own story of the hope that grew as minds were able to wander in the second half. Talk of points deductions and dodgy Merseyside derby refereeing decisions felt distant and, on a poignant night on which Everton paid tribute to chairman Bill Kenwright, dreams of a run in the cup began to flicker.
Calvert-Lewin created the second goal in a move that summed up this game. When a long ball dropped over the Burnley backline, Arijanet Muric stayed in his box and centre-backs Dara O’Shea and Ameen Al-Dakhi struggled to respond. When Calvert-Lewin pounced the pair’s efforts to intervene unfolded in slow motion but, as though he could not believe his luck, Calvert-Lewin checked back and allowed them to close down the effort that followed.
