Everton won their first Merseyside derby at Goodison Park in more than 13 years on Wednesday night, putting a huge dent in Liverpool's Premier League title credentials in the process.

It was Jurgen Klopp's last derby ahead of his impending Liverpool departure at the end of this season, but it won't be one that he remembers fondly given how his team were second best.

All in all, Liverpool trail Arsenal by three points with four games left and could be five points worse off than Manchester City once their games in hand fully unravel.

Is the league title now too far out of reach?

Jurgen Klopp's sunset quadruple might end up being a lonely Carabao Cup.

Everton took a deserved lead in the first half through Jarrad Branthwaite.

Calvert-Lewin touched the ball into the net...after it was already over the line.


...but his time would soon come.

He was too much for Liverpool's centre-back pairing.

It was not a night for Mohamed Salah, who continues to look off his game since a January injury.
