'Unfortunately, VAR didn’t have a look' - national media react to Everton's draw with Liverpool

Jordan Pickford was Everton’s hero as Frank Lampard’s side claimed a hard-fought point in Saturday's Merseyside derby against Liverpool.

But despite Pickford’s heroics, Everton were competitive in their own right, hitting the post themselves and having a goal chalked off marginally for offside. Conor Coady was the man denied a dream moment against his boyhood club following a VAR review.

Luis Diaz, Mohamed Salah and Darwin Nunez all hit the woodwork for Jurgen Klopp’s men, while Pickford also denied Fabinho and Roberto Firmino in the closing 20 minutes. The result leaves Everton in 16th and without a Premier League win this season - but the outlook is a lot more positive following this latest draw, their fourth in succession. And below is a look at how the national media reported on the game.
