Was Jordan Pickford let down by his 'magic water bottle'? Fans call Everton goalkeeper's 'bluff' after penalty drama against Leeds

Fans believe that Jordan Pickford's water bottle cheat sheet may have let him down on Monday evening.

Everton were on course to secure a draw at newly promoted Leeds until James Tarkowski's controversial handball in the 82nd minute.

That call went to VAR and was hotly contested by Everton's players, but ultimately Chris Kavanagh's decision stood and Pickford had to face the music.

The Toffees goalkeeper launched into his classic ritual of checking his water bottle, where he writes the penalty routines of the takers he is likely to face.
