Verdict from Joe Thomas after Everton's clash with Aston Villa in the League Cup
A rare Aston Villa attack had petered out and a team that was searching for a way to go forward could only go backward. The ball was fed back to centre back Ezri Konsa, who sent it to goalkeeper Robin Olsen, who farmed it out to his other centre back, Pau Torres.

Led by James Garner, bolstered by his heroics in west London and starting in the middle as he has craved to do for so long, the Everton midfield snapped into the press and the ball ended up being sent back to Olsen, who could only fluff it into the night sky where it was met on the edge of the box by Amadou Onana.
Moments later Calvert-Lewin was played through by Harrison and his effort was saved by the onrushing Olsen. The rebound fell to the striker at an acute angle but he would have been disappointed he did not double the lead and score his second in a week.
