Match Report

Liverpool snatched a historic Merseyside derby at Everton's new Hill Dickinson Stadium, winning 2-1 thanks to Virgil van Dijk's towering stoppage-time header in the 100th minute — the Reds' sixth such late winner against their city rivals in the Premier League era. Mohamed Salah opened the scoring in the 29th minute, only for Beto to equalise for Everton in the 54th. The hosts had earlier thought they'd taken the lead, but Iliman Ndiaye's goal was ruled out by VAR for offside. With 11 minutes of added time on the board, van Dijk rose to head home the winner and seal a dramatic comeback — reportedly his final derby appearance. For Liverpool, already eliminated from the Champions League and FA Cup, the result keeps their top-five charge firmly on track. Everton, sitting eighth and five points adrift, saw their own slim European ambitions dealt a heavy blow on a night that will sting long after the final whistle.
