Yerry Mina’s equaliser came in the ninth minute of second-half stoppage time

Everton\u2019s fight to avoid the drop into the Championship will go down to the final day of the season despite Yerry Mina snatching a dramatic equaliser deep into stoppage time at Wolves.<\/p>\n

The Toffees looked on course for a damaging defeat until Mina pounced in a goalmouth scramble in the final seconds of nine minutes of additional time to give Sean Dyche\u2019s side what might prove to be a priceless point.<\/p>\n

Everton must now anxiously await how other results pan out to discover the full extent of their task when they face Bournemouth at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Wolves went ahead in a scrappy encounter after 34 minutes when Hwang Hee-Chan scored from a rebound after Everton keeper Jordan Pickford had pushed out Adama Traore\u2019s shot.<\/p>\n

Everton\u2019s best opportunities came with two first-half headers from Dominic Calvert-Lewin but they suffered a severe blow when the injury-plagued striker was forced to limp off with his latest problem on the stroke of half-time.<\/p>\n

It now rests on that crucial clash with Bournemouth as Everton attempt to avoid their first relegation from the top tier since 1951 but this may yet be the point that helps to maintain their Premier League status.<\/p>\n
