Everton will see their draw at Nottingham Forest as a missed opportunity to drag themselves out of the Premier League's bottom three.
The Blues took the lead inside 10 minutes through a Demarai Gray penalty before Brennan Johnson equalised. Abdoulaye Doucoure restored Everton's lead on the half hour mark to send them into the half-time break in the lead.
But Johnson notched his second of the afternoon late in the second period to keep Sean Dyche's side in the drop zone.
