SUB: Anthony Gordon (Calvert-Lewin, 79) N/A – Worked hard when he came on but usually in his own half, rather than around West Ham’s box. AFP
WEST HAM RATINGS: Lukas Fabianski 5 – Didn’t have a save to make and could do little to stop Holgate’s deflected effort. He was, however, quick off his line on two occasions to put off Richarlison.
Reuters
Ryan Fredericks 7 – He let Richarlison get the wrong side of him on one occasion but recovered well – and read the situation perfectly – to deny the Brazilian. Made another vital challenge in the second half. Getty
Craig Dawson 6 – Another solid performance, this time characterised by good passing out from the back. Wasn’t fooled by a Holgate dive in the second half. Action Images
Kurt Zouma 6 – Booed throughout by the visiting fans, he had a quiet game but won pretty much everything in the air. PA
Aaron Cresswell 7 – Celebrated making his 450th career appearance with the opening goal; a stunning free-kick from 25 yards that found the top corner and left Pickford with no chance. Came close with another set-piece in the second half. AFP
Tomas Soucek 6 – A quiet game by his standards, and though he didn’t do a great deal, wrong the Hammers’ central axis were guilty of conceding passes through the middle of the park.
AFP
Declan Rice 6 – Tidy on the ball, he did the simple things very well. Made a crucial intervention to deny Calvert-Lewin when the game became stretched.
Action Images
Jarrod Bowen 7 – Won the free-kick that led to the first goal and scored West Ham’s second after he followed up Pickford’s save to deny Antonio.
AFP
Said Benrahma 6 – His passing in the attacking third often opened Everton’s defence; his most incisive assist giving Antonio an excellent chance, which he wasted. Had an effort from long range easily saved.
Getty
Pablo Fornals 6 – Seized on Iwobi’s mis-control to feed the ball into Antonio’s path in the build-up to West Ham’s second.
PA
Michael Antonio 7 – The striker’s goal drought continues, though his movement was impressive. His first effort was blocked by Keane and then took the ball too wide. Came close again in the second half and it led to West Ham regaining the lead.
AFP
SUBS: Mark Noble (Bowen, 69) 5 – Kept his passing short and simple. Getty
Andriy Yarmolenko (Benrahma, 82) N/A – On for his 14th appearance of the season, he was a calming influence. Reuters
EVERTON RATINGS: Jordan Pickford 6 – Continued his fine form from international duty against Switzerland and did well to deny Fornals with a blockt. His distribution sometimes put his full-backs under pressure. Was unlucky to see his save from Antonio fall into Bowen’s path.
Getty
Jonjoe Kenny 3 – A weak link at the back, and who often gave those attacking on the West Ham left too much time and space.
Getty
Michael Keane 5 – Everton looked nervy at the back to start, but Keane grew into the game and made several key interventions, with his head and feet. Looked excellent on the ball but made a rash challenge when already on a yellow and left his teammates with it all to do.
Reuters
Ben Godfrey 5 – Gave the ball away on one occasion and didn’t appear to make much of an effort to get it back, with West Ham on the offensive. However, he made an incredible tackle to deny Antonio in the final 10 minutes.
AFP
Vitaliy Mykolenko 5 – Guilty of playing Antonio onside when the striker broke free before West Ham’s winning goal. However, he made a number of important blocks with West Ham threatening to attack on the right-hand side.
Getty
Abdoulaye Doucoure 4 – Had plenty of time on the ball but never looked assured with it and was often caught in possession.
AFP
Mason Holgate 6 – A late starter following an injury to Donny van der Beek in the warm-up, he levelled the scores with a well-taken half volley following Richarlison’s lay off. Fantastic finish. Was guilty of looking for a penalty in the second half.
AFP
Alex Iwobi 6 – One of Everton’s brighter performers, he was dangerous when running forward with the ball but it was from his loss of possession that West Ham regained the lead. Dropped to his knees when Bowen converted, knowing his mistake was costly.
AFP
Demarai Gray 6 – Was lively without really causing too much of a threat. His movement was good, he showed good feet throughout, and he linked well with Calvert-Lewin, but he didn’t create any chances of note.
AFP
Dominic Calvert-Lewin 7 – His movement capped a fine opening half hour for the visitors, though he was often let down by the final ball. He came close after the break when he fashioned a shooting opportunity, but he couldn’t keep his left-foot shoot under the bar.
PA
Richarlison 7 – Arguably Everton’s biggest threat. He first broke free following an incisive pass from Iwobi and rounded Pickford but was denied by the pace of a recovering Fredericks. He came close with another effort using the outside of his boot, but he couldn’t keep it under the bar. It was from his lay off that Holgate equalised.
