Ten-man Everton began the 2024/25 Premier League campaign with a 3-0 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion at Goodison Park after a number of key moments went against the Blues at both ends of the field.
An offside flag denied Jack Harrison an opening goal inside the first five minutes before Kaoru Mitoma broke the deadlock on 25 minutes, applying a simple finish to Yankuba Minteh’s inviting low cross from the right side of the penalty area.
The Blues continued to look dangerous, though, and thought they had a penalty within two minutes of the half-time restart when Dominic Calvert-Lewin – on his 200th career appearance – was felled by Lewis Dunk, only for referee Simon Hooper to be sent to a pitchside monitor and reverse his decision.
Everton’s frustrations were compounded minutes later when the visitors seized on a loose pass and Danny Welbeck doubled the deficit with a low finish.
The Toffees were then forced to play the final 25 minutes with a one-man disadvantage after Ashley Young was dismissed for a professional foul, before substitute Simon Adingra added a third in the dying minutes.

Wieffer had a Great debut! We at Feyenoord Will miss him alot. But I'm sure he'll grow out to be a Danger to other teams
Bit of a piss take calling this a highlight. It only highlights our managers incompetence and stubbornness to play washed-up players namely Young and Keane. Then he brings on Holgate to really rub salt into a gaping wound!!!
And this is England’s #1 Keeper😮💨
At 0:46 you can see mitoma is offside
👏👏
Dyche will improve them. Don’t worry
Sending love to any liverpool fans that came here to enjoy this video 😂
It will be another amazing feat if Everton stays un relegated this season 😅
2024 and there is a team playing with young people in the premier league, bizarre
Adingra 💪💪💪🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮
Mitoma ada, Brighton bangkit..❤❤
⚽️⚽️⚽️🦖
Simon Adingra has scored again. That's good for Brighton and Ivory Coast
The oldest player on the pitch is Young 🤣
Halo Everton
Through this comment I ask for permission to remix the goal moments in this video. 😊
New season, same old Evershit. Keep having fun in the relegation battle party. 🤣😂🤣😂
HAHAHA YNWA
I hate Ashley Young and his old slow ass. How can you start the season and not have signed a right/left-back. It gives me a headache.
The toffees could go down this season
The commentator said ‘Adringa’ instead of ‘ Adingra’😂
akwoakwokawokawokawokawokawokawokawo
IMO Everton should not be battling for relegation this season.
Everton fans who’s the Right Backs besides Young.It’s clear that he doesn’t have much pace.
Thank God Ashley Young is banned for 3 weeks, let's hope he's out for the rest of the season.
When we play spurs make it a back three of o brien tarks and myks
Wingbacks
Mcneil and Harrison
Midfield of gueye tim and ndayie(in a ten)
And front two of doucs and DCL
When we defend go to a four four two and shift ndaiye into the left Mid position 442
If you do that we can actually believe in the team
That's one old Young man. Such kindness for Everton to give elders another chance. I Guess they wont mind a relegation.
How can the manager still be persisting with Keane? Year after year we were headed for relegation until we stopped playing him. It is incredible that this is still going on.
O Super Everton está demais
Super Everton is awesome
Not a good start from Everton but a long way to go so don't panic.
It would b a disaster if Everton got relegated in their last ever season at Goodison Park 🏞️.
For the sake of Evertonians they will b hoping that they will b in the PL at their new ground on the banks of the Mersey at the start of the 2025/26 season..
Playing great
