EVERTON V LIVERPOOL LIVE: LAMPARD’S TOFFEES AND KLOPP’S REDS LOCKED IN MERSEYSIDE DERBY STALEMATE IN PREMIER LEAGUE

It's all over, the game ends goalless and the teams share the spoils after an enthralling Merseyside derby at Goodison Park!

We've had great saves, near misses and cards but pivotally, VAR intervention which made the most important call of the afternoon to deny Coady.

This match always produces and today was no different. Everton will be pleased with a point and a clean sheet against their rivals, but disappointed they were denied a winning goal.

Liverpool will see this as dropped points, but will have to pick themselves up ready to go again in the Champions League on Wednesday.

SALAH HITS THE POST!

This game just keeps on giving!

Salah strikes the post in the final knockings of the match.

In fact, Pickford got a touch to that!

Unbelievable stuff.

We have six minutes of added time to be played at Goodison Park!

It's end-to-end stuff and this game is hanging in the balance!

Will there be a winner?

Pickford is refusing to be beaten here!

Salah crosses for Firmino who takes the shot on the bounce, but Pickford gets across and makes the save.

Top goalkeeping from Pickford this afternoon.

McNeil, who has not long been on the field, curls an effort which takes a deflection and forces Alisson into a smart reaction save.

This game could still go either way. We have five minutes plus stoppage time remaining at Goodison Park!

Elliot and Nunez have made way for Jota and Matip.

Klopp seems to be looking for the win, but also remaining cautious at the back.

A balanced approach from the Liverpool boss.

A booking for Van Dijk who fouls Onana, he is down getting treatment.

This game has been played at such high intensity, credit to both teams for creating such a spectacle this afternoon.

Both teams will be wondering how we are still goalless, and Liverpool will try to change that with further substitutions in the offing.

By the finest of margins, Coady is ruled offside and the goal has been chalked off!

The score returns to 0-0 and with twenty minutes left, it's all to play for!

Relief for Liverpool.

Wow, wow, wow! Everton have taken the lead and the roof has been lifted off Goodison Park courtesy of the former Liverpool man, Coady!

Maupay's ball across the box is met by Coady who taps the ball home from close-range to send the Everton fans into raptures!

However, VAR are checking for offside!

Everton come so close to a goal!

Maupay has only the goalkeeper to beat in the middle of the box, but Alisson stands tall and gets a strong right glove to the ball to deny Maupay.

A frantic passage of play and somehow, we still remain goalless!

Patterson makes a surging run into the penalty area and unleashes a strike which is deflected behind for a corner, which, is dealt with by Liverpool.

The visitors counter and Firmino forces another save from Pickford who pushes the ball around the post for a corner which finds Firmino again, but once again Pickford is there to beat the header away!

We're not done, Pickford is on fire as he is equal to Fabinho's snap shot from around 12 yards out - some real heroics from the Everton goalkeeper!

Gordon drives to the by-line with purpose and forces a corner, but Gray sends the ball over everybody and out of play.

Everton make their first change of the afternoon. Davies makes way for Gana who rejoined the club for his second spell in the last knockings of the transfer window.

Lampard might be looking for a bit more energy in the midfield.

Robertson and Milner are coming onto the pitch for Tsimikas and Alexander-Arnold.

Changes in both full back positions.

Perhaps Klopp is looking for fresh legs in his full-backs higher up the pitch.

There is a sense of nervousness among the home crowd in the early stages of the second half. A slight hush has fallen on proceedings.

Iwobi has a speculative effort from distance which caused a few gasps and lifts the noise somewhat.

Liverpool will enjoy dampening the atmosphere and will hope to capitalise. Further changes are in the pipeline for the away side.

Liverpool win a corner that comes to nothing, they will be frustrated not to have made more of set-piece opportunities so far this afternoon.

Everton have seen little of the ball in the early stages of the second half, they need someone to do something to get the fans off their seats.

We remain goalless.

Another huge chance goes begging for the visitors!

Elliot fizzes a teasing ball across the box which runs for Tsimikas at the back post, but the Greek full back blazes the ball over the crossbar.

Surely something has to give before too long?

Diaz and Nunez have combined neatly again there, with the former getting to the by-line before pulling the ball back for Nunez who could not connect cleanly with the attempt on goal. A goal-kick is given.

Lively start to the half from both sides with Everton almost setting up a counter attack prior to Liverpool's most recent chance. This one could swing either way, but which way will it go in the end?

The second half is underway as Everton and Liverpool remain locked in a stalemate at Goodison Park on Merseyside derby day in the Premier League.

Davies went closest for Everton in the first half, while Nunez and Diaz were both denied in quick succession for Liverpool minutes before the interval.

There is one change for Liverpool at the break as Carvalho, who seems to have picked up a knock in that challenge with Onana, is replaced by Firmino.

Take a breath, the referee has brought an end to the first half with both sides left wondering how they haven't opened the scoring.

Davies struck the post with Everton's best chance, while Nunez was denied by the fingertips of Pickford before Diaz also hit the woodwork seconds later.

It's goalless somehow and the second half promises to be a cracker. See you in fifteen minutes - stay tuned!

What a save from Pickford, who tips Nunez's shot onto the crossbar before Diaz hits the post with the follow-up shot! How are Liverpool not ahead!?

Everton have kept Liverpool's talismen fairly quiet, but the home side almost came unstuck on that occasion.
