Jordan Pickford reveals how he KNEW where Newcastle star Anthony Gordon was putting his penalty, after Everton keeper produced stunning save to deny former team-mate from the spot

Jordan Pickford has revealed how he knew where Anthony Gordon was going to place his penalty in Everton's stalemate with Newcastle.

The Magpies were awarded a spot kick for a second consecutive week when James Tarkowski dragged down Sando Tonali inside the box on the half hour mark.

Gordon stepped up to take it in Alexander Isak's absence but saw his effort saved by former Toffees team-mate Pickford, who dived to his left.

The England international goalkeeper says he knew where Gordon was going to place the penalty once it was awarded.
