Off we go again.

No extra-time or penalties pleaseee.

Everton were back out on the field for a good two, three minutes before the Boreham Wood players.

Mind games from the visitors, keeping their hosts waiting.

A change for Everton at the start of the second half.

Richarlison, who Pat Nevin said the game was "crying out for", enters.

The Brazil international replaces Nathan Patterson.

Mistakenly said earlier that the World Cup play-off between Scotland and Ukraine has been called off, when in fact Ukraine have requested a postponement.

The nations were due to meet at Hampden on 24 March but football in Ukraine has been suspended following Russia's invasion of the country.

The winners will play either Wales or Austria for a place at Qatar 2022.

World governing body Fifa say they are working with Uefa and the Scottish Football Association to "find an appropriate solution".

Boreham Wood have been excellent. They are so efficient in their shape and they are making the gaps so small between the lines.

When they have won the ball they have shown a bit of composure.

They have not turned up just to defend and they have been comfortable.

Everton have to do more.

Boreham Wood absolutely deserve to get to half time at 0-0.

Their fans are delighted and Everton fans are almost in disbelief.

The story here is Boreham Wood. They have been calm, structured and controlled.

They know what they are good at and they won't budge from it.

Boos from everywhere but the section housing the Boreham Wood fans as the half-time whistle goes. One fan in front of the press bit here used a few words I can’t repeat. All those in black and white let out an almighty roar to greet what has been a superb 45 minutes from the National League team. They’ve defended with discipline, intelligence and fight. It seemed like an impossible mission before the game. I think more than a few Blues fans might be getting a little bit worried.

Going to plan for Boreham Wood so far, they have done superbly.

One last piece of defending to do for Boreham Wood in the first half as Everton earn a late corner.

Two minutes added on in the first half.

Desperately poor delivery from Andros Townsend again, too much on it and again it drops out for a goal kick.

Boreham Wood will take that all day long.

Boreham Wood make a rare foray forward and Tyrone Marsh puts in a cross which Asmir Begovic gathers at the near post.

Unsure about the full details on that but play was stopped only for a couple of minutes we are back under way.

Goodison Park has fallen quiet.

There's a break in play here.

Physios are running across the pitch to an incident in the stands.

Lovely piece of skill from Boreham Wood's Kane Smith, a boyhood Everton fan.

He'll cherish that moment at Goodison Park forever.

You are looking for a spark for Everton now and it looks like Anthony Gordon will be the most likely to create something.

He just looks a class above.

First real chance of the game and it comes from Anthony Gordon whipping a low cross-come-shot into the area.

It takes a nasty bounce off the surface but Taye Ashby-Hammond sees it all the way and pushes it out.

That was sneaking in.
