Nej, så er vi absolut ikke enige. Everton havde op mod 65 % boldbesiddelse en overgang i anden halvleg. Første halvleg var vores, men i anden halvleg overlod vi meget initiativ til Everton og satsede på omstillingerne.
62 min: Everton are beginning to gain the upper hand here. They win a free kick down the left, just outside the area. Baines swings a dangerous ball into the area, but it´s well cleared by Ba. The Toon Army are very, very quiet at the moment. When Everton were preparing to take the kick, the stadium was drenched in a complete rugby-esque silence, like Twickenham before a penalty kick.
65 min: Everton are looking dangerous. Saha nearly turns on the penalty spot to shoot, but is robbed as he cocks his leg back by Steven Taylor, who whips the ball away with nanoseconds to spare. Then Baines is this close to breaking free down the left, but Simpson denies him with a majestic sliding tackle. Baines is booked for clattering Simpson as he chases to retrieve the ball.
67 min: Ryan Taylor misjudges a bouncing ball in the midfield, running straight under it. Drenthe tears upfield, two on two. He draws the Newcastle players to the right, and a good ball towards the inside-left channel would release Coleman on goal, but he can´t find the pass. Newcastle are beginning to look very ragged, their exploits at Stoke on Monday evening perhaps beginning to catch up with them.
69 min: Guthrie eats up the yards with a meandering run down the inside-left channel. Eventually he slips the ball along to Ba, who attempts a curler into the top right from the edge of the box. He gets nowhere near enough power on the ball and Howard collects efficiently.
71 min: A shame for Coleman, who turns brilliantly in the Newcastle area down the right to break past Ryan Taylor, only to fall over in the David Beckham / John Terry penalty style, shanking the ball into the crowd while in space and with team-mates waiting in the middle to convert.
73 min: A change for Newcastle: Best off, Ben Arfa on.
75 min: Ameobi drops a shoulder and skates past Hibbert down the left. He digs out a wonderful cross, but Jagielka launches himself spectacularly at the ball to head clear.
77 min: A lull, in what´s otherwise been a highly entertaining and unpredictable game.
79 min: A yellow for Guthrie, who cynically takes down Baines as the Everton full back goes on a romp towards the area down the inside-left channel. From the free kick, the ball´s worked out right, then sent to the left-hand post, where Saha rises well to head a clever ball into space in the middle of the Newcastle area, the defence having been drawn to him. But there´s nobody rushing in for Everton, and Coloccini can clear.
83 min: Ryan Taylor is booked for a deliberate handball on the halfway line. Newcastle have the look of an anxious team; the crowd are chipping in with an appropriate soundscape.
84 min: Drenthe bundles Ben Arfa over. Yellow card.
85 min: This is like watching injury time already. Everton are launching ball after ball towards the Newcastle area; the home side are hacking each one clear, with varying degrees of oomph and success.
86 min: An Everton corner down the left. Cahill uncharacteristically fails to connect with a simple header at the far post. McFadden picks the loose ball up down the right, checks back, and attempts to curl one into the top left. That would have been a picture-book goal had it gone in. It was quite pretty even with the ball going wide left and into the crowd behind. But aesthetics aren´t enough for Everton, with time running out.
