Brennan Johnson's brace ensured Nottingham Forest claimed a 2-2 draw with Everton, who twice surrendered the lead and failed to capitalise on a chance to move out of the Premier League relegation zone.

Two goals from Johnson were enough to earn Steve Cooper's side a point to keep themselves four points clear of the bottom three, while Everton, who scored thanks to Demarai Gray's penalty and Abdoulaye Doucoure's header, remain 18th.

Ad The Toffees were awarded a penalty with only nine minutes on the clock after Jonjo Shelvey clumsily brought down Dwight McNeil and referee John Brooks pointed to the spot.
