Wilson double denies Everton top spot
Callum Wilson scored twice as Newcastle United beat Everton 2-1, denying the Toffees the chance to reclaim top spot from Liverpool.
With James Rodriguez and Richarlison missing from the Everton team, Carlo Ancelotti's side succumbed to a limp defeat as Callum Wilson bagged his brace in the second half before Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late reply.
It was a difficult day for Everton, whose England keeper Jordan Pickford was dropped, losing his place to Robin Olsen after a turbulent start to the season.
Newcastle took the lead in the 56th minute when Andre Gomes was adjudged to have fouled Wilson as he attempted to clear a corner at the near post.
It looked a harsh decision but Wilson stepped up to send Olsen the wrong way for his fifth goal of the season.
Wilson finished off Everton with a close-range effort from Ryan Fraser's deflected cross in the 84th minute.
Netting with a flicked finish, Calvert-Lewin's 11th club goal of the season came too late to stop second-placed Everton's second successive defeat.
