Jack Grealish thumped a put up and Thierno Barry missed a sitter – earlier than Sunderland completely dominated the second half and drew stage by Granit Xhaka.
Everton have drawn extra Premier League video games than another aspect since Moyes’ return to the membership in January final season (10), however solely three sides have extra factors on the street than their 21 in that point (Arsenal – 28, Crystal Palace – 25, Brentford – 23).
He mentioned: “I believed for 20, half-hour I’d be dissatisfied if I am going house with a degree, annd on the finish I used to be happy we received a degree. We missed a superb probability to make it 2-0, then we sat again and that gave Sunderland a little bit of confidence.
“We didn’t handle the final quarter-hour of the primary half very properly and we didn’t handle the second half properly. We did all of the issues we hoped we’d, it was a case of would we rating.
“Iliman Ndiaye scored an excellent particular person purpose, Jack [Grealish] hits the put up and once we missed [Thierno Barry’s] probability we didn’t have sufficient, then we conceded instantly after kick-off. Targets make the distinction and might change how you’re feeling as a supervisor.
“Coming to Sunderland, a degree is just not a foul outcome, however after half-hour I used to be feeling ‘we’re alright right here, we must always get a outcome’. You would see it was a fortunate purpose [for Sunderland], it was a deflection however in the event you shoot, typically you get a little bit of luck they usually received a bit fortunate.
“I’m struggling to select a lot positives from any of our soccer within the second half. The principle factor was to not concede a second purpose. It summed up the night time that we couldn’t discover a go to get that second purpose.

We felt they had been a superb aspect and had many threats, the power to use our turnovers, and we weren’t as constant sufficient throughout this primary a part of the sport to be aggressive. However we switched on the final a part of the primary half, and the second half was a lot better and we deserved to even rating a second purpose.
“Typically we begin properly, and also you don’t actually know why. Typically we begin like we did in the present day, and we don’t know why, however we are able to change the momentum, so we had been nonetheless related with our concepts, and that is one of the simplest ways to be again on this sport.”
