On a night when Everton had multiple reasons to celebrate, they saw off Klopp with the result that all but secures them a 71st consecutive season of top-flight football and may in effect finish off Liverpool’s title challenge.

Klopp spent his final night on the Goodison Park touchline haranguing the fourth official Simon Hooper, a picture of frustration.

For the most part, Liverpool had no answer to them.

After 13 matches without a victory, Everton have won three in four.

He gave Everton an aerial menace, but so did their giant centre-backs as Liverpool were subject to a set-piece bombardment.

He shot and while Alisson took the pace off it and deflected it on to the post, it rolled over the line, with Calvert-Lewin sliding in to make sure.

A resurgent Calvert-Lewin was to get his goal anyway: after a 23-game drought, it was a third in four when he headed in Dwight McNeil’s far-post corner.

It felt Klopp raised the white flag when he substituted Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold.

And on a day when Liverpool moved closer to appointing Klopp’s successor, Everton all but ensured that Arne Slot will not inherit the reigning champions.
