Calvert-Lewin sent off as Everton draws nil-all with Crystal Palace in FA Cup

Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin was sent off but the team managed to finish the match with a nil-all result in the third round of the FA Cup.

Calvert-Lewin was shown a straight red card in the 79th minute after on-field referee Chris Kavanagh had been advised to review the incident on a pitch-side monitor after an intervention from Video Assistant Referee Michael Salisbury.

The England forward had his studs up as he slid in to win the ball in a challenge on Nathaniel Clyne and clipped the defender's shin, although contact was minimal.

Everton also suffered after a serious injury to winger Dwight McNeil, who was carried off on a stretcher with a leg injury late on.

The third round of matches will continue tomorrow.
