If a first Merseyside derby home win since October 2010 was not cause enough for celebration for Everton, their 2-0 triumph came with what they will regard as the glorious bonus of inflicting potentially irreparable damage to Liverpool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This much was clear as the famous old stadium echoed to the taunts of \u201cYou Lost The League At Goodison Park\u201d as a leggy, lacklustre Liverpool banged their heads on the brick wall that was Everton\u2019s defence and outstanding goalkeeper Jordan Pickford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It was 39 years to the night since what is widely regarded as the most famous evening in Goodison Park\u2019s history when Bayern Munich were overpowered in the European Cup Winners\u2019 Cup semi-final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This win, of course, does not even touch that significance but this will be a night Everton fans will remember for a long time and Liverpool will want to forget \u2013 and if they do forget they will find plenty of a royal blue persuasion happy to remind them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Everton flew at Liverpool from the first whistle, roared on in an atmosphere that might just be impossible to replicate when they leave this stadium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
