Attack:

Richarlison – 6

Richarlison looked bright and involved early on but as the game aged, he couldn’t get involved as he would’ve desired. The Brazilian was not at his best today as he played some sloppy passes to his teammates. Soon after Raphinha’s equalizer, Richarlison curled a shot from outside the box but the ball went wide.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin – 7

Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored a cool and calm penalty in front of a hostile crowd. The Englishman had two big chances to kill the game when the scoreline was 2-1, one through Iwobi’s through ball and the other through Gray’s grounded ball in the box.

One would expect DCL to bury such chances considering his stature and development as a striker in the last couple of years. There wasn’t much he could do after the second Leeds equalizer as he often found himself isolated.

Substitutes:

Andros Townsend – 6

Came on for Iwobi as Toffees searched for a possible winner but couldn’t have the desired impact. The former Crystal Palace man did force a save off Illan Meslier.

Fabian Delph – 6

Fabian Delph looked decent and made a risky tackle that could’ve ended in a Leeds penalty but thankfully the tackle was well-timed.

Moise Kean – N/A
