Goalless at Anfield

Defiant Everton emerged with a battling point from the 205th Merseyside derby.

Having beaten their nearest neighbours 3-0 at Goodison Park on September, they produced a highly creditable performance against the odds at Anfield.

There were few chances, but despite Liverpool's constant possession and second-half onslaught, they were denied a crucial three points in their quest for second spot in the Premier League.
