Andy Hunter was at Goodison, and his report has landed. Thanks for reading this MBM!
Frank Lampard is a lot happier, telling BT: “Cor yeah, we were brilliant. They are a fantastic team, top players, top coach, always a risk. We defended brilliantly and held our own, and we had our own chances. Both teams went toe to toe in the derby, and it’s one of the best nil-nils you’ll ever see. Both keepers made great saves. It was a real game of two teams going for it. I can’t fault the players. We played well, and we’re getting better. We’re not going to go from just staying up to becoming the team we want to be. It’s a process, and we’re building from the back. It’s not easy to play against Liverpool, but we got out more than enough times to get our own goals today. We have to keep working, we feel like those wins will come. We feel we deserve more. Today maybe not, it could have gone either way, so that’s fair enough, but the fans can see we’re not glorying in a nil-nil, it’s a team with spirit that fights for the badge. It makes me proud.”
