Liverpool left it late to take all three points in a highly charged and controversial Merseyside derby with a 2-1 win over nine-man Everton on Saturday. More
90'+4 And there goes the final whistle! Incredible scenes at Goodison! Livepool run out 2-1 winners after a mental final few minutes!
90'+3 PENALTY SHOUT FOR EVERTON AT THE DEATH! MUST BE! NO! Not given again!
90'+2 GOAL! KUYT NETS HIS SECOND TO WIN IT FOR LIVERPOOL!
90' INCREDIBLE! NEVILLE IS SENT OFF FOR SAVING VORONIN'S CLOSE RANGE EFFORT WITH HIS HANDS! AND IT'S ANOTHER PENALTY!
89' Yellows for Carragher and McFadden for a tussle in the middle of the park...
88' Pennant on for Sissoko...
84' Baines comes on to replace Anichebe now as Everton look to hang on to a point.
82' Voronin! Oooh! He heads wide of the mark! Liverpool getting closer!
79' Yakubu comes off now... and he'll have to wait a little longer for his first goal at Goodison... McFadden comes on.
78' Voronin on the break! He heads off towards goal... cuts inside past Stubbs, but his shot is dragged wide of the mark!
72' What's going on here? Steven Gerrard is hauled off by Benitez... Lucas comes on to replace him. Gerrard doesn't look happy about that one...
69' Liverpool make a change... Benayoun is replaced by Ryan Babel, who is making his first appearance in a Merseyside derby...
66' Oooh! YAKUBU lets fly with a real stinger from 25 yards! Inches wide of the post!
64' Kuyt goes into the book for a reckless challenge on Phil Neville... the crowd don't like that one at all... that could easily construed as a red card offence...
61' Oooh! Chances galore for Liverpool! Kuyt stabs an effort goalwards... repelled by Howard! It falls again for him! Over the bar with a header!
58' Chance for Liverpool to double their lead! Kuyt breaks free on the far side... he pulls back to RIISE! OH NO! The Norwegian blazes over the bar! Bad, bad miss...
57' Penalty shout from Lescott at the other end! Finnan's got his arms all over the full-back... but the ref waves play on this time!
54' GOAL! KUYT STEPS UP AND SENDS HOWARD THE WRONG WAY! Liverpool are right back in this one, if somewhat controversially! 1-1 now!
53' AND A RED CARD FOR HIBBERT! EVERTON DOWN TO TEN MEN!
53' Liverpool break from the clearance.... Gerrard's through on goal! Hibbert chases back... Gerrard goes down and the ref POINTS TO THE SPOT! PENALTY!
46' Back underway at Goodison! No changes to tell you about...
45'+2 There goes the whislte! Half time at Goodison and it's Everton again who are in the lead!
40' Here goes Lescott again... he centre for Osman who tries an instinctive first time effort! It's not too well struck though and the ball rolls past the upright!
38' GOAL! EVERTON TAKE THE LEAD THROUGH A HYYPIA OWN GOAL! It's a calamitous effort from the defender... Stubbs' centre is deflected high into the air... it's a real scramble in the Liverpool box and Hyypia instinctively sticks out a boot as the ball comes across him... in off the post and Everton are one up!
35' OOOOH! Liverpool come back with their best effort of the game! It's Riise with a free kick that is deflected off Hibbert... the ball bounces agonisingly wide of the upright!
33' Oooh! Best chance of the match so far! Arteta whips a free-kick into the Liverpool mixer... Anichebe leaps highest to help the ball on... but it lands on top of Reina's netting! Good effort nonetheless...
30' Osman lets fly with a hopeful volley from outside the box... and you know what? It's not that far off...
24' The Liverpool defence take their time about clearing the corner... Sissoko and Osman clash heads in a quick head tennis rally and the ref blows up for the pair to receive some attention...
16' The ball's in the back of the net! But the linesman's flag went up ages ago to signal Kuyt offside... ironic cheers abound from the Goodison faithful...
5' REAL CHANCE FOR LIVERPOOL! Hibbert allows a long ball to bounce to Benayoun, who jinks inside and lays off for Voronin! MUST BE! NO! The Ukrainian rather stabs his shot goalwards and Howard is able to claim the ball at the second attempt!
1' Underway in bright sunshine at Goodison!
