GOODISON Park has witnessed plenty in its long history, but perhaps never anything quite like this.

A Richarlison goal at the start of the second half played a big role in making this feel like a potentially huge moment in the history of this club, but it was far from the only contributing factor to what was an atmospheric afternoon on Merseyside.

Everton fans packed the streets outside Goodison Park prior to kick-off, creating an atmosphere to welcome the team bus, hoping to give the players a boost as they look to avoid relegation.
