Everton battled hard only to come unstuck in the dying seconds as they fell to a 2-1 FA Cup semi-final defeat to Manchester United on Saturday evening.
An explosive contest, that saw 38 attempts at goal in all, ended with Anthony Martial tucking home in the 93rd minute with the coolest of finishes.
Prior to that, Chris Smalling's own goal - coming after some positive play by sub Gerard Deulofeu - had cancelled out Marouane Fellaini's earlier opener to set the tone for a dramatic conclusion.
Relive how the entertaining 90 minutes of action unfolded with Sports Mole's live text coverage below.

Roberto Martinez: "We carry hurt and that's normal after what happened in the last game, but clearly the focus is about the opportunity of being in the semi-final of the FA Cup. Since the quarter-final against Chelsea, results haven't been good enough, and that's something we'll try to look into next week when we face the next league game."
Louis van Gaal: "It it not for me to judge he importance of this match - I have said that already in former press conferences. I do my utmost best and I have said that. We are in the semi-finals of the FA Cup, we are still in the race for the fourth position in the Premier League and that was our aim."
