"Liverpool held on for a 2-1 win against rivals Everton in today's Merseyside Derby, with goals from Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike enough to seal the three points. The Reds started brightly at Anfield, with Gravenberch and Ekitike giving them a 2-0 lead inside half an hour, but once again they took their foot off the gas a little. Idrissa Gueye pulled one back for Everton just before the hour mark, but on this occasion there would be no comeback like we saw when Atletico Madrid came from 2-0 down in the Champions League game in midweek."
"Alisson Becker 6/10 Didn't always have a huge amount to do, but once again failed to keep a clean sheet. Harsh to say the goal was his fault, but it's perhaps a shot he could've done better on. Virgil van Dijk 7/10 Both the Liverpool centre-backs will have to lose points for conceding again, but Van Dijk was mostly pretty good and completed 59 of his 64 passes. Ibrahima Konate 7/10 Similarly to Van Dijk, there wasn't a huge amount Konate did wrong, and he distributed the ball well, but it just fell short of an 8/10 performance."
Liverpool secured a 2-1 victory over Everton at Anfield with early goals from Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike giving a 2-0 lead inside 30 minutes. Everton reduced the deficit through Idrissa Gueye just before the hour, but Liverpool resisted any further comeback to claim three points. Alisson Becker conceded once and was rated 6/10. Virgil van Dijk and Ibrahima Konate put in solid defensive displays, each rated 7/10, while Conor Bradley, Milos Kerkez, Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai produced mixed performances. Ryan Gravenberch was the standout player with a goal, assist and a 9/10 rating.
