Everton's official account trolled a viral Manchester City fan on TikTok after a dramatic 3-3 draw at the Hill Dickinson Stadium which dealt Pep Guardiola's side a major blow in the title race.
City went in at half-time 1-0 up thanks to a stunning strike from Jeremy Doku but suffered a crazy 13-minute collapse where substitute Thierno Barry struck twice either side of a header from Jake O'Brien to make it 3-1 to the Toffees.
Erling Haaland struck to reduce the deficit seconds after the restart before Doku popped up with another gem of a strike in what was virtually the last kick of the game - denying Everton a first win over City since a 4-0 victory at Goodison Park in Guardiola's first season.
The result leaves City five points behind Arsenal, who have played a game more and will guarantee a historic title if they win all three of their remaining games.

On TikTok, Everton's official page went out of their way to troll City fan Tal Rehman, who has become a viral meme in recent times after drinking an Arsenal water bottle when the Blues went 3-0 up away at Chelsea a day after the Mikel Arteta's side lost to Bournemouth.
Rehman was caught on the Sky Sports cameras and his picture was everywhere online. But whoever was on TikTok duty for Everton deciding to capitalise on Monday night, with the City fan's reaction to conceding captured on camera.
Everton posted a clip zooming in on Rehman with his head in his hands, complete with the caption, "We recognise this Manchester City fan!".
The video was liked more than 350,000 times on the platform, with fans weighing in with reaction.
One Arsenal fan said, "Everton admin youâre invited to the parade."
A second added: "Everton admin posted this on TikTok (laughing emojis)."
A third commented: "We finally have a prem club that actually loves us."
A fourth wrote: "Give that admin a raise !!".
City return to action on Saturday when they host Brentford on Saturday evening, with Arsenal travelling to struggling West Ham the following day - in the same week as a tough Champions League semi-final second leg against Atletico Madrid.
