On Sunday evening, an intriguing match took place in the 29th round of the English Premier League.
Two Liverpool teams, Everton and Liverpool, met at Goodison Park stadium. Jurgen Klopp's players needed three points, but the Toffees did not make mistakes in defense and played to a goalless draw.
From the beginning of the match, there was a fierce battle on the field. Both teams did not shine in attack, but fought for every ball on the field.
In the middle of the first half, Mohamed Salah had a great opportunity to put Liverpool ahead, but Jordan Pickford reacted to his shot.
Later, the Reds created several more dangerous opportunities. Everton's defenders even managed to steal the ball from Liverpool players' feet twice when they were about to shoot from just a few meters away.
Ultimately, neither team managed to score, and the match ended in a goalless draw.
For Liverpool, this draw was particularly unfavorable. The Reds, who had been leading almost the entire season, lost their top spot to Manchester City, who now have an advantage in points. There are still nine rounds left to play until the end of the season.
With 37 points, Everton is currently in 10th place.
Final score:
Everton 0 - 0 Liverpool
