Were not out of it yet - Moyes insists Evertons European hopes are still alive - Soccer News

""It's amazing that we are actually talking about Everton possibly being in Europe with two games to go - and we're not out of it yet," he said. "It's getting tougher every game we're not winning. "We did OK. We gave up some chances - the game could have been 4-4 or 5-5 at one point. We are trying to win at the moment, but we missed some big chances to make it 2-0. "They did as well - but we had a chance to go 2-0, and we didn't take it. Credit to Crystal Palace, they stuck in.""

"The Toffees missed the chance to move within two points of seventh-place Brighton, after they were twice pegged back at Selhurst Park. Everton are now without a win in five Premier League games, their longest streak without success since a run of six between February and April 2025. Moyes' side must take maximum points from their two remaining matches and hope for favours from elsewhere if they are to play in Europe next season, but their head coach is not giving up yet."

""It is a little bit disappointing to get one point - but the game was really difficult. They had really good system. They have good players and a good manager. It is always difficult to come down here to play. "We are still fighting. We need to keep going and try to win the next two games. You can say it was a missed opportunity, but we are still in it, so we just need to focus on the next game.""

Everton drew 2-2 with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, twice taking the lead before being pegged back. The result left Everton without a win in five Premier League games, their longest winless run since early 2025. David Moyes said Everton are not out of European qualification contention with two matches remaining, though the task is becoming harder each game they fail to win. Moyes noted Everton missed major chances to extend the lead, while crediting Palace for staying in the match. Beto described the point as disappointing and a missed opportunity, but said Everton must keep fighting, focus on the next game, and aim to win both remaining fixtures.
