LIVERPOOL WALKS VICTORIOUSLY OVER EVERTON

Liverpool jumped into third place on the Premier League log following a convincing 3 - 1 victory over Everton in a hotly contested Merseyside derby. 

                      

Saido opened the scoring early on with his 13th Premier League goal of the season. Mane celebrates his goal with Firmino and Coutinho Everton drew level through young defender Matthew Pennington, playing in his first Everton match of the season. 

Reports that Liverpool lost Mane to injury after the break, but his replacement Divock Origi struck within four minutes of coming on to replace him. The win sees Liverpool move above Manchester City and into third place after their fourth straight top-flight home victory.
