Liverpool had a multitude of chances but could only score their first through an 80th-minute Mohamed Salah penalty, before the forward bagged a second in stoppage time to secure the 2-0 victory after a lot of possession.
Ashley Young, who has played in some of the world’s biggest cross-city clashes in Manchester, Milan and Birmingham, was sent for a second bookable offence shortly before half-time to make the Toffees’ task of ending their woeful record across Stanley Park even more difficult.
But despite Salah’s stellar statistics this was far from a classic derby encounter, even it was a predictably typical one. It did little for striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s prospects, whose only opportunity came just 36 seconds into the game when he headed tamely at Alisson Becker. But Klopp’s side were nowhere near their sharpest in the final third and that played right into Everton’s hands.
Keane must have wished he could have been afford the same courtesy when his outstretched arm blocked Diaz’s cross.
