Ceri Holland has spoken of her regret at the fact her Liverpool side failed to show who they are against Everton and believes a solution to their slow starts to games must be found.
Returning to Anfield in the WSL for the first time since 2019, the Reds were simply second best against their Merseyside rivals, who claimed a comprehensive 3-0 victory in front of a women’s record crowd.
Megan Finnigan gave Everton an early lead when she sent a header past Rachael Laws before the excellent Jess Park made it 2-0 with a composed finish in front of the Kop 12 minutes before the interval. Substitute Hanna Bennison then added a third late on.
