Carabao Cup: Huddersfield Town 1-2 Everton
Andros Townsend’s first Everton goal handed the 10-man Toffees victory over Huddersfield in the Carabao Cup.
Summer signing Townsend fired home Andre Gomes’ cross with 11 minutes left to clinch their third-round spot.
Tom Lees’ header on the stroke of half-time had cancelled out Alex Iwobi’s first-half opener.
Striker Moise Kean, who had a first-half effort disallowed, was sent off just before the hour mark after clashing with Town’s Sorba Thomas.
