Doncaster Rovers v Everton - LIVE

Key Events

  • Rovers have never beaten a top-flight side at the Eco-Power Stadium, their home since 2007.
  • Both teams are bottom of their respective leagues and without a win.
  • Sean Dyche’s Everton have failed to scored in their opening three Premier League games

First chance for Everton

And it’s a reminder of their quality. Rovers picked apart by a one-two between Onana and Danjuma, who fires across the face of goal.

Good play from Maxwell

He draws a foul from Doucoure in Everton’s half after the midfielder charged down his run.

Nathan Patterson passes the ball out of play

Just sums up the first 40 minutes for Everton. They don’t look at the races currently.

James Maxwell sends a delivery into the box but the ball bounces just in front of Luke Molyneux, who can’t get it under control to shoot. He was unmarked.

Another Doncaster chance! Zain Westbrooke hits the stanchion with a low strike from distance.

‘Premier League, you’re having a laugh’ chant the Doncaster fans. Home side well on top.

Zain Westbrooke sends a low delivery to the edge of the box which Tommy Rowe is first too but his side-footed effort is just over.

Doncaster force a corner

They counter on Everton and great hold-up play from Ironside finds Molyneux, who takes the ball to the byline where his cross is blocked for a corner. Excellent.

Another chance for Doncaster

Everton can’t get the ball of Mo Faal, who finds Luke Molyneux out wide. The winger beats Mykolenko and crosses for Faal in the six-yard box but he can’t get a clean connection.

This place is going to erupt if Doncaster score first.

Good tackle from Broadbent

He tackles Doucoure on the edge of Doncaster’s box with the midfielder on the charge.

A subplot of tonight’s game

Doncaster’s James Maxwell is good friends with Nathan Patterson of Everton from their time at Rangers. Both players are lining up opposite each other tonight.
