A calamitous error from Everton's goalkeeper Jordan Pickford allowed Liverpool's Divock Origi to score in the injury time and gift his side an unbelievable 1-0 victory in the Premier League clash on Sunday.

A win in the Merseyside Derby meant Liverpool retained their second spot on the Premier League table with 36 points, two behind leaders Manchester City and five more than third-placed Chelsea.
Meanwhile, earlier in the day, Chelsea bounced back from their first Premier League defeat of the season to see off local rivals Fulham 2-0 on Sunday.
The home side dominated possession at Stamford Bridge and scored early through Spanish forward Pedro but struggled to find their rhythm and looked shaky until substitute Loftus-Cheek settled their nerves with a late second.
Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri enjoyed a dream start to his tenure in England but a chastening 3-1 defeat to Tottenham last week stung him badly, prompting a series of post-mortems with individual players.Sunday's hard-fought win lifted Chelsea into third place above Spurs and Arsenal.
