th<\/sup> minute through Chile international Jean Beausejour, but he hosts hit back 20 minutes later as Jonny Heitinga placed a shot into the top corner which gave Ben Foster no chance.<\/p>\nDespite dominating the rest of the match Everton could not score, with Louis Saha and Jermaine Beckford both squandering decent opportunities.<\/p>\n
Talking to Everton\u2019s official website, Moyes said: \u201cWhen it has come to us to make the moment count, we haven’t been able to produce.\u201d<\/p>\n
Despite the draw, the Toffees’ form has improved of late, having picked up seven points from a possible nine in the last three league games, but the Scot isn\u2019t getting carried away.<\/p>\n
He said: \u201cThe players have dug deep and got some good results. We\u2019re disappointed tonight that we couldn\u2019t take full advantage and get a home win but we have picked up some good points recently so we\u2019ve just got to try and keep going.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think we\u2019re in that position where we\u2019re in the middle. I think if we had won tonight we could have started to get a bit closer to the ones up the top.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know what points it\u2019s going to take to stay in the league but we\u2019re certainly beginning to get away from that end.\u201d<\/p>\n
Although Moyes believes the Toffees are in a more stable position, he isn\u2019t concerned about catching up with fierce rivals Liverpool, who are just five points ahead.<\/p>\n
He added: \u201cWhat we\u2019ve got to do is win our next game and see what happens, that\u2019s the important thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
One sour note for the Toffees, though, was an injury to influential midfielder Mikel Arteta who pulled up with a hamstring problem early on.<\/p>\n
Moyes said: \u201cI couldn\u2019t tell you yet the extent of the injury. I just saw what you saw. I haven\u2019t had a chance to speak to the medical team yet.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe played very well on Saturday against Newcastle and he was beginning to show signs of coming back so to lose him so early in the game was a big blow.\u201d<\/p>\n
