Fowler ‘will not face action’

Everton 2 Manchester City 1

Everton overtook their entire points total for last season with a victory that keeps them in the Premiership top three thanks to Marcus Bent’s second half header. Tim Cahill’s effort had given Everton the lead, cancelled out by a Fowler header before the break.

Fowler, who was fined five years ago following his celebrations after scoring for Liverpool against Everton, netted an equaliser, then raced behind the goal and down the touchline smacking his hand on top of his head.
