Alex Iwobi turns Lampard’s magic man at Goodison Park.
The Nigerian was Everton’s hero with a cool head in the 99TH MINUTE when everyone else lost theirs, Megasportsarena.com reports.
The Toffees winger latched on to Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s cute pass to slot in the winner against Newcastle.
It looked set to be a bitterly frustrating night for Frank Lampard who will be without Allan for three matches after his red card for his reckless challenge on Allan Saint-Maximin as the Newcastle danger man launched a counter attack.
But the lengthy check – plus an eight-minute delay after a protestor tied his neck to the goalposts – meant there were 14 minutes of added time.
And in the ninth, Iwobi tucked in and Goodison Park erupted.
At 98 minutes and 19 seconds, Alex Iwobi’s goal was the latest Premier League goal scored since Bruno Fernandes’ penalty for Man Utd vs Brighton in September 2020 (99:45).
