Richarlison Header Lifts Everton Up To Fifth

Everton moved up to fifth in the Premier League as Richarlison's 65th-minute header was enough to secure a 1-0 win over West Brom at The Hawthorns.

Mbaye Diagne was denied a dramatic late equaliser in the third minute of stoppage time when his finish was ruled out for offside.

The striker saw an early header brilliantly kept out by Jordan Pickford before Dominic Calvert-Lewin went close as Sam Johnstone kept out his shot from close range.

But Everton took control in the second period and found the breakthrough when substitute Gylfi Sigurdsson's cross was turned in by Richarlison for his fourth goal in as many games.

The visitors' third straight league win moved them temporarily into the Champions League places but Chelsea's 1-0 victory at Liverpool later on Thursday squeezed them out to fifth. West Brom remain in 19th place after 27 games, nine points adrift of safety.

Kaduna Born Islamic Cleric, Sheikh Gumi Insists That Repentant Bandits Should Be Granted Amnesty.

Renowned northern Islamic scholar, Sheikh AHMAD GUMI, is insisting that amnesty should be granted to repentant bandits.

He said if government could pardon coup plotters that committed treasonable felony, there was nothing wrong extending the same gesture to the bandits.

The Islamic cleric, while responding to the Christian Association of Nigeria in Kaduna, said there was need to forgive bandits for the country to have peace.

GUMI added that he never betrayed soldiers of Christian faith before the bandits when he visited them.

He noted that he was misunderstood by CAN because the video that went viral about his discussion with the bandits was distorted and the actual message was manipulated.
