EVERTON Reserves were left frustrated by Sunderland as they drew 0-0 in the FA Premier Reserve League Northern Section at the Stobart Stadium last night.
Both sides missed several chances and in the end had to settle for a point apiece.
Andy Holden’s young side started well and Lukas Jutkiewicz fired into the side-netting after being played in by Dan Gosling.
The 19-year-old striker went closest on a number of occasions for Everton.
The visitors almost took the lead on 23 minutes but, thankfully for Everton an unmarked Jordan Cook headed over from four yards, while Iain Turner twice saved well from Jordan Henderson.
Late on Everton almost grabbed a winner but Kieran Agard was off target from Jutkiewicz’s pass
EVERTON RESERVES: Turner, Nsiala, Barnett, Gosling, Craig, McCarten (Spencer 49), Kissock (Akpan 45), Wallace, Jutkiewicz, Agard, O’Kane (McCready 45). Subs: Stubhaug, Codling.
