Premier League wrap: Frank fumes over red, Wolves move out of drop zone

Brentford head coach Thomas Frank was left fuming at Christian Norgaard's red card as Everton failed to take advantage of playing against 10 men for almost an hour in a goalless draw at Goodison Park.

FULL MATCH DETAILS

The Bees centre-back was sent off following VAR intervention after catching goalkeeper Jordan Pickford on his knee as he slid in attempting to break the deadlock late in the first half.

Referee Chris Kavanagh did not issue a yellow card or award a foul but was advised to view the pitchside monitor and opted to dismiss the Denmark international.

Brentford's players were furious but Frank took his protestations too far and was cautioned.

In explaining the decision the Premier League Match Centre's X account said: "The VAR deemed that the challenge was serious foul play and recommended an on-field review".

The red card did nothing for the game as goal-shy Everton, struggling to make a breakthrough against a team which at least had some attacking intent, found 10 men even harder to find a way past.

Despite being 15th the Toffees are the third-lowest scorers in the league with 10, with three teams below them in the table managing more goals and this was another example of why.

Ross Barkley headed in a late equaliser as Aston Villa salvaged a 2-2 draw with lowly Crystal Palace on a wet and windy Saturday afternoon at Villa Park.
