Liverpool fielded a formidable squad in the hopes of winning at Goodison Park, a venue that rarely produces surprises. With just two victories since his arrival, it has not been a pleasant hunting ground for Klopp; nonetheless, they required all three points today to remain in the English Premier League title fight.
The Blues got out to a fast start, and it seemed like Alisson gave up a penalty when Calvert-Lewin broke through for the score. However, VAR stepped in and recognised that the goalscorer was well offside.
Nobody can argue that Everton's goal, which they finally achieved, was unjustified. It was tenacious as ever, but not without merit. Whatever you think of this Liverpool team under Jurgen Klopp, they certainly enjoy poking themselves in the eye.
Although the visitors started producing some decent opportunities in front of the goal and recovered reasonably well from the setback. Their finishing, which has been lacking lately, was still lacking in this game.
Liverpool lose more ground in the gruelling title race!
Liverpool appeared to be playing from behind at their neighbour's stadium, and they did not enjoy an excellent opening to the second half. Everton controlled the first fifteen minutes of the second half before Calvert-Lewin scored a corner to make it 2-0.
In response, Jürgen Klopp made three substitutions: Elliott, Endo, and Quansah were substituted for Jones, Szoboszlai, and Konate. Though not really an offensive substitution, every substitute player in this game aside from Diaz and Robertson had performed horribly. With roughly 10 minutes remaining, Klopp substitutes Tsimikas and Gomez for both full backs.
Today, Sean Dyche's team won a memorable game at Goodison Park. Furthermore, the team's poor performance in this crucial game against their neighbours will go down in history. They did not appear. After his team's dismal performance, Jurgen Klopp lost his final Merseyside derby, as well as the English Premier League title went unnoticed.
