“This match was always destined to be tense. Many duels. We are very upset to concede at the last second of the game, but what can you do.

I think the referee played a big role in today’s match, interpreting similar episodes differently.

It was a cup final for them. We knew they would try to do everything possible to make our lives difficult. It’s a big success for them and a blow for us,” quotes the Liverpool captain talkSPORT.

Let us remind you that this was the last Merseyside derby at Goodison Park.
