Tottenham star Richarlison was applauded by Everton's supporters after apologising for scoring a goal at Goodison Park.

The Brazilian forward was part of the Tottenham side who travelled to Merseyside on Saturday lunchtime, looking to extend his stunning goalscoring run.

Incredibly it took Richarlison just four minutes to open the scoring with the striker scoring an instinctive left-footed effort that saw the ball powered into the roof of Jordan Pickford's net.

Richarlison wheeled away as if to celebrate, but quickly remembered where he was, and then stood still with a straight facial expression as his Tottenham teammates swarmed him with congratulations.

He appeared to apologise to the Everton fans behind the goal, who applauded his respectful gesture.

That effort was Richarlison's eighth Premier League strike in eight games for Ange Postecoglou's side.

Richarlison spent four years with the Toffees, helping them avoid relegation in the 2021/22 season, before joining Tottenham for a fee worth up to £60million that summer.

It wasn't the first time that the 26-year-old has paid his respects to Everton either after apologising to their fans for scoring against them during the reverse fixture in north London earlier this season.
