From the moment the team buses were welcomed in through clouds of blue smoke as Everton fans lined the streets, there was a sense of excitement about this one as Everton sensed that Liverpool were there for the taking. Everton manager David Moyes named an unchanged side and his team were far more energetic in the early stages but were guilty of wastefulness, with Beto in particular spurning a massive opportunity when he was through on goal.
The noise inside the stadium was quite something when Iliman Ndiaye scored, but the decision to disallow the goal for offside deflated the players and the fans and Liverpool showed their quality when Mohamed Salah finished clinically.
