Liverpool defeated Everton 1: 4 yesterday (Wednesday) in a Merseyside derby in what was their third league game in a row in which they occupy a quartet. The Reds celebrated at Goodison Park – a stadium where they have not lost since October 2010 – and one of those in charge was Jordan Henderson, who scored the first goal and cooked up the second.
After the game the English midfielder took the plunge and told Sport1: “Our very good performance, we can be happy, it is not an easy place to play. We started well, from the first moment we played fast and created situations. We defended well most of the game, and in the end we can be happy.” .
On his goal he said: “Nice to score in the derby, it was also the first goal of the game, so it’s very nice. Overall we had a very good performance. We achieved a victory, we scored beautiful goals, if we are critical of ourselves – we are disappointed with the goal we conceded, but there was Good game”.
Who returned to Goodison yesterday was Virgil Van Dyke, who last year was injured at the same venue and was absent from the pitches for an extended period. “The truth is, I do not think it affected Virgil,” Henderson said. Too much for him. “
