Richardson, who scored a brace in Spurs’ match against Everton, sent a sweet seven-word greeting.

While the visiting team initially took the lead, Dominic Calvert-Lewin later scored a close-range header to equalize after just 30 minutes (later credited as Jack Harrison’s goal).

Despite dominating since the early minutes, Sean Dyche’s team faced disappointment as Richarlison scored again just before halftime, leaving Everton relying on Jarrad Branthwaite’s last-minute equalizer to salvage a draw.

The match at Goodison Park was intense, with Everton matching a team competing for Champions League qualification.

However, the joy was overshadowed by the opposing team’s Brazilian striker scoring twice.

Richarlison, who spent four successful years at Everton, had a significant impact on the

club despite its struggles. He was a key player during the 2021/22 season, preventing relegation almost single-handedly.

His bond with Everton fans was strong, evident in his recent Instagram post featuring a young fan he has known for some time.

The applause from Everton fans during the match against Spurs was not for Richarlison’s goals against his former club but for his respectful reaction afterward. Despite initially celebrating, he quickly realized the significance of his goal and showed remorse.

His muted celebration and subsequent apology demonstrated his continued affection for

Everton, even though he left the club nearly two years ago amid difficult circumstances.
