Michael Keane had given the Toffees a first half lead, earning his third goal of the season.

However, Moyes’ side then barely threatened Jose Sa’s goal with another pedestrian performance.

Defensively, we looked disorganised and error prone. You could sense the equaliser coming, as Everton allowed Wolves to grow into the game.

At 1-1, Wolves looked the more likely to snatch it, and with seven minutes remaining, Everton were reduced to 10 men.

Indeed, Michael Keane’s aerial duel with Tolu Arokodare prompted VAR to intervene. After a lengthy wait when few in the stadium knew what was actually being reviewed, the 32-year-old was eventually dismissed for pulling his opponent’s hair.

The decision by referee Tom Kirk, based on the advice of (surprise, surprise) Chris Kavanagh on VAR has been called ‘ridiculous’ by David Moyes.

He siad: “It was not violent, it is not forceful, and it is not deliberate. All those things I have said, it should not be a red card.

“Today, this was in the game on a ball coming up. If everybody grew their hair longer, there could be a chance you are going to get your hair pulled. I thought it was a ridiculous decision.
