Callum Wilson’s double dashed Everton’s hopes of returning to the top of the Premier League table as England keeper Jordan Pickford watched from the bench.

Pickford was rested by manager Carlo Ancelotti after a turbulent few weeks, but replacement Robin Olsen could not keep out Wilson’s 56th-minute penalty and his late second to prevent a much-changed Toffees’ side from slipping to a 2-1 defeat at St James’ Park.
