The first goal, a striking volley from his left foot, followed Destiny Udogie’s aggressive push down the left. His second goal, which grabbed the nomination, unfolded at the 41st minute.

After breaking down Everton’s defense, Timo Werner passed to James Maddison, who then set up Richarlison. With precision, Richarlison curled the ball past Jordan Pickford into the top corner.

Richarlison, a former Everton player still cherished by Toffees fans, showed respect during his celebrations, especially in front of the Gwladys Street Stand, signaling his ongoing respect for the club and its supporters.
