Intensity so important against Dyche's Everton - Klopp

Liverpool belatedly secured their first Premier League win of 2023 as goals from Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo condemned Sean Dyche to a first defeat as Everton boss in the Merseyside Derby at Anfield.

Salah fired Liverpool into the lead as he finished a counter-attack just 17 seconds after Everton defender James Tarkowski hit the post at the other end.

And Gakpo doubled the Reds’ lead shortly after half time with his first Liverpool goal, finishing a cross from Trent Alexander-Arnold at the back post.

Everton, who remain in the bottom three, barely threatened after going behind but Tom Davies missed a free header at the back post late on.

Jurgen Klopp’s side move above Chelsea into ninth in the Premier League table while Everton remain in trouble in the relegation zone ahead of a six-pointer against Leeds on Saturday.
