Everton manager Ronald Koeman has admitted that he was left fuming at his players in the dressing room after they had to come from behind to earn a point at home from Premier League strugglers Swansea City.

The Swans took an unlikely lead just before the break when Gylfi Sigurdsson made no mistake from the spot following a challenge from Phil Jagielka in the box, and the basement side could have walked away from Goodison Park with all three points if not for Seamus Coleman's last-minute equaliser.

The result means that the Toffees have now won just one of their last seven matches, with the Swansea draw coming just a week after a 5-0 humiliation to Chelsea in London.

"I was not calm because we spoke a lot about about what happened at Chelsea," Koeman told reporters after the game. "We spoke about how we need to start. We spoke about the opponent that they are in a difficult situation - from the start [we needed to] be aggressive, press, make it difficult so they are not comfortable on the pitch and it was not like that.

"I was angry because we know how we need to play but some players in the team it's difficult to have that attitude maybe but okay the reaction in the second half we saw but not in the first half. I think [we deserved the equaliser, but] not how we played in the first half because I was really disappointed.

"I expected a reaction from the start, not from the start of the second half. Of course in the second half we did good things – we played good football, won a lot of second balls with good pressing and we made it very difficult for them. We did not create a lot of open chances, not all the crosses were very good. But at least they weren't as comfortable as in the first half. That was a different attitude and what we expected from the start. But maybe a lack of confidence that we need. But I don't understand why we needed to be one nil down to get that reaction."

Next up for Koeman's side, who are now seventh in the league, is a trip to Southampton next weekend.
