Liverpool inflicted fresh misery on Merseyside rivals Everton as a superb strike from teenager Curtis Jones sealed a 1-0 win in the FA Cup third round on Sunday.
Jones’ second-half curler sent Anfield into ecstasy as the club's youth academy graduates handed Everton an embarrassing derby defeat.
The 18-year-old Liverpool-born midfielder was making only his fifth appearance and his memorable match-winner was his first senior goal.
Jones is the youngest goalscorer for Liverpool in a Merseyside derby since Robbie Fowler in 1994.
“They played brave football. Unbelievable individual performances from the kids and the adults as well,” Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said.
“I’m so happy they all showed up tonight. Sensational game and a sensational goal from a Scouser. Who could ask for more?”
Without a win over their rivals in any competition since 2010 and thrashed 5-2 at Anfield in the Premier League earlier this season, Everton will feel the pain from this defeat against their under-strength neighbours for some while. (SuperSport)
