    BBC Sport     Leighton Baines Baines scored from a penalty that should not have been awarded

    A controversial decision by referee Howard Webb gifted Everton a penalty, which Leighton Baines scored to rescue a draw at Sunderland.

    The visitors dominated early on but Sunderland’s Jack Colback struck as his shot deflected in off Sylvain Distin.

    Then came controversy as Leon Osman went down after kicking the turf and falling, leading to Baines’s penalty.

    Everton’s Royston Drenthe had another spot-kick claim turned down when he appeared to be fouled by Craig Gardner.
