Liverpool is one point behind Manchester City following the win against Everton on Sunday. The loss to Liverpool meant Everton find themselves in the relegation zone and fighting for their survival. Everton is now in third-to-last place and find themselves two points below Burnley, who finally climbed out of the relegation zone after beating Wolves at home.

Everton frustrated Liverpool in the first half with both the teams remaining goalless. The arrival of Divick Origi as a substitute on the hour mark proved decisive, with his game-changing performance adding to his derby legacy. Origi first played a part in Robertson’s goal, as his header from Mohamed Salah’s clever cross,helped Robertson to open the innings.  The striker then finished things off with a close-range header five minutes from time for his sixth goal in nine derbies.
