Liverpool fans teased their Merseyside rivals Everton with a Rafa Benitez themed chant during their 2-0 victory at Anfield on Monday evening.
The Reds earned their first Premier League win since the New Year as goals from Mohamed Salah and Cody Gakpo either side of half-time saw them ease past Sean Dyche’s struggling Toffees. Whilst it is too early to say that Liverpool are back on track - Jurgen Klopp’s men still sitting ninth in the Premier League table - it gave supporters plenty to celebrate given their opponents.
Supporters at Anfield fired a brutal shot at their Everton counterparts as they loudly sung former boss Rafa Benitez’s name during the second-half of the showdown. The Spaniard is an iconic figure for Liverpool after winning the FA Cup and the Champions League during a six-year spell with the club. But his decision to manage Everton cast shade on his Liverpool achievements.
