Nsangou On Target In Everton's Behind-Closed-Doors Clash
2026-10-02
Charly Alcaraz, Thierno Barry and 16-year-old Jonathan Nsangou were on the scoresheet as Everton played out a 3-3 draw with Blackburn Rovers behind closed doors at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Friday afternoon. Alcaraz's confidently-dispatched penalty opened the scoring inside eight minutes, before Mark Travers saved a Blackburn spot-kick midway through the opening period. Alcaraz then turned provider on the stroke of half-time, producing an inviting cross for Barry to turn home from close range to double the Toffees' advantage. The visitors hit back with two quick goals after the restart and went ahead with three minutes remaining, via a third penalty of the match. Boss David Moyes handed minutes to a host of youngsters throughout the contest, including Joshua van Schoor, John Dodds, Ezra Carrington, Harvey Foster and Melvin Matos – and it was Under-18s forward Nsangou, who calmly struck home a late equaliser after being played in by Jack Grealish.
