Dominic Calvert-Lewin has admitted he was left 'crying on his bedroom floor' in the lowest moment of his career as he attempted to help Everton avoid relegation.

The 28-year-old, who has been with Everton since 2016, scored the goal that confirmed their top flight status during the 2021-22 season netting the winner in a 3-2 win over Crystal Palace.

Calvert-Lewin's goal came amid an injury-plagued season, which he claimed added to the pressure having thought it was 'his responsibility to save everybody' at the club.

Speaking on the High Performance Podcast, Calvert-Lewin said he had been at 'rock bottom' weeks before the match.
