Everton striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin believes they must remain calm as they look to avoid relegation.

Calvert-Lewin believes everyone must keep a cool and calm head if they are to get points off Crystal Palace in midweek and take a giant step towards another year in the top flight.

"It is absolutely still in our hands," said the striker post-game.

"You know what, I thought [against Brentford] we dug deep and showed a lot of spirit... We stuck together and we worked and we grafted.

"After going down to 10 men [after 18 minutes], it was a long time to keep defending.

"Brentford have good quality players and they put balls in the box, so it's difficult at times.

"We just have to pick ourselves up - we're disappointed, but we know that we have another opportunity on Thursday to go again.

"The chat after the game there is positive despite the result because we have an opportunity in our hands to go out and get three points and keep ourselves in the league.

"That's what we are focusing on now.

"We just have to rest and recover and work as hard as we possibly can on Thursday to get the result."
