Liverpool and Everton played out an eventful Merseyside derby at Anfield on Saturday, with the hosts taking maximum points from a 2-1 victory. In the process, Toffees' boss David Moyes set an unwanted Premier League record, as Idrissa Gueye's 58th minute strike was not enough to salvage a point after first half goals from Ryan Gravenberch and Hugo Ekitike.

Liverpool's £125 million recruit was outshone by his fellow forward as the Reds claimed a 2-1 win over Everton in the Merseyside derby.

Coleen Rooney has poked fun at her husband Wayne after he revealed a cheeky prank she pulled on him during Liverpool’s 2020 Premier League title celebrations.

Now, Coleen has responded with a tongue-in-cheek post on social media.

Everton boss David Moyes has defended Liverpool's summer spending spree but still aimed a cheeky dig at their Merseyside rivals.

Arne Slot has decided to leave both of his big new signings, Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, on the bench for Liverpool's massive Merseyside clash against Everton.

Hugo Ekitike starts up top for Slot's side at Anfield instead.

Wayne Rooney has revealed how bitter a rivalry led him to lock wife Coleen out of the house after he fell victim to a brutal prank at his family home. Wayne Rooney grew up supporting Everton and spent 13 glorious years at Manchester United, while his wife Coleen is known to be a supporter of Liverpool and has always been vocal about her support for the Reds.

Everton striker Beto has paid tribute to his compatriot Diogo Jota, revealing the late Liverpool and Portugal forward was the first person to text him following his move to Merseyside.

Rafa Benitez lifted the lid on his relationship with Jose Mourinho and made his feelings known on the Special One joining Benfica. The pair first locked horns in England back in 2004, when Benitez arrived at Liverpool just two weeks after Mourinho swaggered into Chelsea.
