After another frustrating 90 minutes away from Goodison Park, here are a few moments that may have been overlooked - or missed - in the aftermath of the match, from Neal Maupay's kit confusion, and Frank Lampard's thoughts on it, to the concern at the decisions against Everton which continued well after the half time whistle.
