MARCO SILVA’S PLIGHT at Everton has deepened further with a 3-1 defeat at home to Wolves. The visitors took the lead through a Ruben Neves penalty, earned when Matt Doherty was brought down in the penalty area. Everton equalised through Andre Gomes 20 minutes later, but contrived to trail again at half-time, through a Raul Jimenez goal just before the whistle.
Wolves scored again midway through the second half through Leon Dendoncker, which sealed their third-straight league win.

The Saints led through Nathan Redmond from early in the second half, and seemed to be on their way to a critical three points before they conceded a penalty through handball in the 94th minute, which Ashley Barnes slammed home.
Elsewhere, Crystal Palace secured an important three points with a 2-0 win over Fulham. They led through a Luca Milivojevic penalty after 25 minutes, and sealed the win through Jeffrey Schlupp three minutes from time.
Finally, Brighton and Watford drew 0-0 in a game in which virtually nothing happened.
