Thierno Barry's fourth goal in five Premier League appearances earned Everton a 1-1 draw with Leeds at Goodison Park. The £27m summer signing from Villarreal scored a superb finish to cancel out James Justin's first-half opener, as both sides shared the spoils after dominant halves.
Leeds, under pressure after weekend wins for relegation rivals, were vastly superior in the first half and deservedly led when Justin converted Anton Stach's cross at the back post. Dominic Calvert-Lewin, facing his former club, then hit the post for the visitors.
David Moyes made half-time changes, introducing Jarrad Branthwaite and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and switching to a 3-5-2 formation. The hosts improved significantly and Barry equalised after Idrissa Gueye's low cross found the Frenchman, who flicked the ball into the roof of the net.
Everton struck the crossbar through Gueye shortly after, while Tyler Dibling could have won it late on but opted to cross instead of shooting. Both managers felt their sides could have claimed more, with Daniel Farke praising his team's first-half display despite dropping two points.
Before kick-off, Everton honoured former full-back Tommy Wright, a 1966 FA Cup and 1970 league title winner, with a period of applause following his recent death.
