Which player scored both of Everton’s goals in their 2–0 win over Crystal Palace in the 2026–27 Premier League opener?
Answer
None; two players scored
No player scored both Everton goals against Crystal Palace; Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall and Thierno Barry scored one each.
Everton defeated Crystal Palace 2–0 at Hill Dickinson Stadium on 22 August 2026. Dewsbury-Hall scored before half-time, and Barry added the second goal after the interval.
The victory was Everton’s first opening Premier League win in five years. It was also their first victory in eight top-flight matches, making the clean-sheet result an important early boost.
Harrison Armstrong was another Everton player who attracted attention during the match, but he did not score both goals. The two-goal split is the key distinction: Everton’s victory came from separate finishes by Dewsbury-Hall and Barry.
