April 6, 2021 Everton Held At Home By Palace

Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti insisted his side are still in the fight for European qualification despite conceding a late leveller to Crystal Palace.

Palace substitute Michy Batshuayi equalised in the 86th minute, placing the ball beyond Robin Olsen into the bottom corner.

Returning from injury, Everton's James Rodriguez had given the Toffees a deserved lead with a superb right-footed strike in the 56th minute.

"The target is the same," Ancelotti told BBC Sport.

"We lost two points. We have to get those two points back in other games."

The result leaves Everton eighth, five points off fourth-placed West Ham having played one game fewer.

Palace's safety is all but guaranteed, the draw leaving them 12 points clear of the bottom three with eight games remaining.
