Liverpool saw their Premier League title hopes effectively ended in miserable fashion with rare defeat against neighbours Everton.

The Reds conceded in each half as they were beaten 2-0 at Goodison to remain three points leaders Arsenal and only a point ahead of Manchester City, who now have two games in hand.

And here's how the ECHO rated Jurgen Klopp's players after only a second Merseyside derby defeat in almost 14 years.

Alisson Becker 7

Good save from Calvert-Lewin from close range and a little unfortunate to concede opener.

Stopped McNeil effort second half and couldn’t do much about second.

Trent Alexander-Arnold 5

A few too many ambitious passes before the break but at least looked to get Liverpool going.

Second half more of same but fell asleep for second goal.

Low effort kept out by Pickford before break and became attacking threat second half.

Subbed.

Alexis Mac Allister 5

Playing as the number six, caught out occasionally defensively and grew frustrated at his inability to pick a pass but couldn’t be faulted for effort.

Sent effort over towards interval and second half dipped in and out.

Darwin Nunez 4

Kept on showing for the ball but let down by some loose control and should have equalised with shot at Pickford.
