Ramirez, Mirallas score as Everton draw; Atleti edge Brighton & Hove

Everton and Sevilla played out a 2-2 draw at Goodison Park.

It took just 34 seconds for the home side to take the lead when Tom Davies fed in Sandro Ramirez, who went round goalkeeper David Soria and fired into an empty net.

The La Liga side levelled just before the break when Joaquin Correa fed in Ever Banega to score, before Banega got a second from the spot after Gareth Barry had brought down Nolito.

But the Toffees hit back when Kevin Mirallas was felled in the area by Nicolas Pareja, the Belgium international picking himself up to score.

Atletico Madrid needed a late goal to see off Brighton & Hove Albion 3-2 at the Amex Stadium.

Brighton & Hove keeper Maty Ryan embarrassingly let in a speculative Nicolas Gaitan effort from long range in the 42nd minute, but Pascal Gross equalised just after the hour mark.

Steve Sidwell cancelled out Fernando Torres' strike in the 77th minute, but Lucas Hernandez earned the La Liga side victory two minutes from time, touching home from inside the box from a rebound.
