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?
