"Everton boss David Moyes emphasised the importance of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall after his return from injury as he played a starring role in his side's 2-1 comeback win at Fulham. The visitors were all at sea in the first half, conceding through an own goal from Vitaliy Mykolenko and fortunate not to be further behind, with Jordan Pickford making two vital stops to deny Emile Smith-Rowe and Samuel Chukwueze, with both players also striking the crossbar with efforts from distance."
"Everton improved after the break, producing an equaliser in the 75th minute as Mykolenko ventured deep inside the Fulham penalty area and picked out Dewsbury-Hall to stroke an effort home. The winner would arrive in the 83rd minute as the late pressure told, with Bernd Leno flapping at a cross from a corner and inadvertently finding his own net with a miscued punch."
"This extended Everton's unbeaten run to five matches, while they are enjoying their best run without a defeat on their travels since a nine-game spell in the 2020/21 season. Moyes is grateful to call upon the services of Dewsbury-Hall once more, with the Englishman having missed seven matches with a hamstring injury before making his return to the squad last week."
Everton mounted a 2-1 comeback at Fulham after falling behind to an own goal by Vitaliy Mykolenko in a first half dominated by Fulham chances. Jordan Pickford made two crucial saves and both Emile Smith-Rowe and Samuel Chukwueze hit the crossbar. Everton levelled in the 75th minute when Mykolenko set up Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who finished well, and the winner arrived in the 83rd minute when Bernd Leno miscued a punch into his own net. The result extended Everton's unbeaten run to five matches and boosted their away form. Dewsbury-Hall returned from a seven-match hamstring absence and has four goals in his last eight Premier League appearances.
