Everton 1 - 3 Liverpool


Liverpool Triumphant in Merseyside derby

Everton was a tad unlucky to have a goal disallowed, things might have changed if Beattie's 1st goal was ruled on-side by the linesman.

Liverpool made it 9 wins outta 9; amazing streak. Crouch's goal was a beauty, the confidence of a striker is back for the ex-Saints front-man. Gerrard followed with a second & Cisse scored his in the second half. I was happy to see Cisse scoring, it was a great goal too. The rumours of him leaving Anfield for Marseilles are rife.

Beattie pulled one back for the blue half on the merseyside, but Liverpool's back four proved to be sufficient to shut out Everton's attacks on goal.

Liverpool seems unbeatable now, everything seems to be going right for them. They are now 3rd place in the league, behind Chelsea & Man Utd; but with 2 games in hand. Man Utd dropped 2 precious points against Birmingham, it seems like Liverpool is the only possible team to be able to "catch" the leaders at the top.

Liverpool just have to keep the momentum going & not let the amazing winning streak get to their heads, start to lose focus and become complacent. That's the last thing I would want to see happening.
