David Moyes is out of luck

Everton failed to surprise Liverpool.

Liverpool moved closer to the Premier League title with a dramatic Merseyside derby win that extended their unbeaten run to 26 games.

At this point, coach Arne Slot's team is 12 points ahead of Arsenal, while there are only 8 rounds left in the season. This victory becomes even more meaningful, as Liverpool also ended the 9-match unbeaten streak of their city rivals.

The 246th Merseyside derby was heated from the opening whistle. Everton started the game with determination and created some clear chances. Controversy arose early, with James Tarkowski's rough tackle on Alexis Mac Allister in the 11th minute, but the referee only showed him a yellow card.

In the 20th minute, Everton had a chance to open the score when Beto scored against the home team, but luckily for Liverpool, the referee raised the offside flag.

In the second half, Everton continued to miss important opportunities. One of the most regrettable situations was Beto's shot from Abdoulaye Doucoure's pass, but the ball hit the post, much to the regret of Everton fans.

Meanwhile, Liverpool showed better ability to take advantage of opportunities. In the 67th minute, Diogo Jota scored the only goal of the match after taking advantage of the visitors' lack of concentration. The Portuguese player dribbled past three players in blue before unleashing a tricky shot, defeating goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.

Everton had plenty of time but could not change the outcome of the game. Liverpool defended firmly and almost scored a second goal in the final minutes. However, Luis Diaz's shot was blocked by Tarkowski on the goal line.
