A stoppage time equaliser by James Tarkowski gives Everton a well deserved point in the Merseyside Derby.
In a thrilling finale to the Merseyside derby at Goodison Park, Everton secured a dramatic 2-2 draw against Liverpool. The Toffees took an early lead in the 11th minute when Beto latched onto Jarrad Branthwaite‘s quick free-kick, slotting the ball under Alisson.
Liverpool responded swiftly, equalising five minutes later through Alexis Mac Allister, who headed in Mohamed Salah’s cross. The visitors then took the lead against the run of play in the 73rd minute through Salah.
However, Everton’s resilience shone through in stoppage time. In the 98th minute, captain James Tarkowski unleashed a powerful volley into the top corner, sending the home fans into raptures. The goal was confirmed after a lengthy VAR check, ensuring a memorable conclusion to the final derby at Goodison Park.
The match ended on a contentious note, with a post-match altercation leading to red cards for Everton’s Abdoulaye Doucoure, Liverpool’s Curtis Jones, and Liverpool manager Arne Slot.
This hard-fought, and well deserved point moves Everton up to 15th in the Premier League table, providing a morale boost as they prepare to face Crystal Palace away on Saturday.
