Everton and former Manchester United full-back Ashley Young paid homage to Jose Mourinho as he shared his frustration about not winning a penalty in the thrilling draw at Goodison Park on Saturday lunchtime.. Having gone into a deserved 2-0 lead, Everton collapsed in the second half thanks to Bruno Fernandes’ sensational free-kick and Manuel Ugarte’s terrific strike from the edge of the box.
