    Anthony Gordon's movement is excellent and he is one of the brightest talents in the Premier League at the moment.

    Everton 1-0 Boreham Wood

    Lovely intricate football from Everton as Anthony Gordon and Richarlison play a neat one-two, but the Toffees youngster's shot is kept out by Taye Ashby-Hammond's excellent save.

    The big guns have all been drawn away from home, and they'll all have busy schedules, so this competition is open.

    Everton 1-0 Boreham Wood

    Boreham Wood are under real pressure now, having to scramble to try and nick the ball away from the Toffees on the edge of the box.

    Another goal seals the deal, you would think.

    Cheers of happiness at the goal, for sure. Cheers of relief too. Everton had just started to turn the screw prior to that goal, with Boreham Wood unable to get the ball away. It finally results in a finish of quality. The very first of the game. Suddenly, the mood in here is an awful lot brighter.

    Boreham Wood's Will Evans is the first player into the book for a late challenge on Richarlison.

  8. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 59 mins

    Everton 1-0 Boreham Wood

    Did I say Seamus Coleman put the cross in? Obviously I meant Jonjoe Kenny because Coleman has just come on to the pitch.

    He replaces Vitalii Mykolenko, who hobbles off with an apparent hamstring injury.

    It's a cracker of a finish.

    That is the difference of having two strikers on the field, you will stretch the defence.

    From that angle, the finish was the last thing you expected.

    Everton 1-0 Boreham Wood

    Boreham Wood are on the ropes now and almost concede a quick-fire double, but Michael Keane heads over.

    GOAL - Everton 1-0 Boreham Woodpublished at 56 mins

    Salomon Rondon

    There's the breakthrough.

    Jonjoe Kenny fed Salomon Rondon earlier, a gilt-edged opportunity that the Venezuelan missed, but he hits the target this time.

    The ex-Newcastle and West Brom striker reacts quickest to Coleman's cross and clips home a cute finish at the near post.

    A sigh of relief from the home faithful at Goodison.

    Everton 0-0 Boreham Wood

    THAT was the chance Boreham Wood have been waiting for.

    They have pressed high and force Jarred Branthwaite into a loose pass which is picked off by Tyrone Marsh.

    The visiting forward decides to take it early from range, but firing his shot just over.

    The murmuring around the ground has yet to fully calm down after that Rondon chance. I can’t make out every word uttered, but I’m pretty sure it includes the words ‘how’ ‘miss’ ‘did’ and ‘he’. They’re not wrong. Best chance of the game by far.

    Referee Tony Harrington's patience is starting to wear thin as Boreham Wood goalkeeper Taye Ashby-Hammond takes an age over a goal kick.

    Everton looking to work another passage of play but this time Abdoulaye Doucoure's pass is too heavy and out for a goal kick.

    Best chance of the match.

    Jonjoe Kenny has space to swing a cross into the box, perfectly onto the head of Salomon Rondon six yards out, but the Venezuelan heads over.

    Everton have started the second half really quite well.

    They are stretching the defence and getting down the sides.

    More urgency already from Everton, skipper Vitalii Mykolenko zips in a tremendous ball across the box but it is just out of the reach of Salomon Rondon sliding in.

    Richarlison's arrival means Frank Lampard has switched it from a 4-3-3 to a 4-2-3-1.

  20. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 46 mins

    Everton 0-0 Boreham Wood

    Seconds into the second half, Everton want a penalty for a handball from Will Evans, but it comes off his midriff.

    VAR does not overturn the referee's original decision.
