Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp has told the club’s official website what he heard from the Everton dugout during the Toffees’ second goal yesterday.

The Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon ended in a 2-2 draw.

The Reds took the lead twice, but on both occasions, Carlo Ancelotti’s side came back and equalised.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored the second goal for the home team when he turned in Lucas Digne’s cross.

Liverpool boss Klopp has shared what he heard from the Everton bench when Digne put in the cross.

Klopp told Liverpool’s official website: “The second goal, we avoided pretty much all situations like this over the 90 minutes but one time we let Digne cross.

“I heard already when the ball was in the air from the Everton bench, ‘That’s it’ because they know he is really strong in these situations and he scores that goal. Good goal.”

Stats

Over the course of the 90 minutes at Goodison Park on Saturday afternoon, hosts Everton had 42% of the possession, took 11 shots of which five were on target, and earned two corners, according to BBC Sport.

Visitors Liverpool had 58% of the possession, took 22 shots of which eight were on target, and earned five corners, according to BBC Sport.
