Aaron Lennon scored against his former club as Everton began the new year with a 1-1 draw at home to Tottenham Hotspur.

The winger fired in a precise half-volley on 22 minutes – his maiden goal at Goodison Park and first since rejoining the Blues last summer.

But Dele Alli’s equaliser on the stroke of half-time earned Spurs a point after they had twice seen first-half efforts cannon back off the woodwork.

Substitute Muhamed Besic went closest to winning it for Everton in the second half as the visitors resisted late pressure from the Blues.

The score draw leaves Everton still occupying 11th place in the Premier League table with 27 points from 20 fixtures.
