London (B2B) - Aksi brilian Phil Jagielka menghasilkan gol penyama skor di masa tambahan waktu yang memaksa laga Liverpool kontra Everton berakhir imbang 1-1 di Anfield, Sabtu.
Tuan rumah memimpin lebih dulu di menit 65 lewat tendangan bebas Steven Gerrard--yang kini mengoleksi sembilan gol di derbi Merseyside Liga Inggris, lebih banyak daripada pemain lainnya.
Namun, gol setengah voli Jagielka di tambahan waktu membuat kiper Simon Mignolet tak berkutik, seperti dilansir Yahoo Sports.
Liverpool bermain tanpa Daniel Sturridge yang cedera. Tanpa Sturridge yang cedera paha, Liverpool memasang Lazar Markovic dan Adam Lallana dengan mengorbankan Lucas Leiva dan Fabio Borini.
Sementara Everton bukannya tanpa peluang. Beberapa kali Everton mendapat peluang, tetapi gagal mengkonversikannya menjadi gol.
Liverpool menguasai 47 persen jalannya pertandingan, sementara Everton 53 persen. Untuk tendangan ke arah gawang, Liverpool melakukan delapan kali, sementara Everton lima.
London - Everton captain Phil Jagielka scored a sensational 92nd-minute equaliser to earn his side a 1-1 draw against derby rivals Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday.
Steven Gerrard had put Liverpool ahead with a second-half free-kick, but he was upstaged in injury time when his former England colleague Jagielka drove an exquisite half-volley into the top-right corner from 25 yards.
The 32-year-old's memorable strike prevented Liverpool from provisionally climbing to sixth place in the table and means that Brendan Rodgers's side have now gone three league games without victory.
Bidding to halt a run of consecutive defeats, Liverpool quickly took control of the 223rd Merseyside derby and should have had an early penalty when Gareth Barry blocked a Raheem Sterling shot with his arm.
Everton goalkeeper Tim Howard produced smart saves to thwart Mario Balotelli, Adam Lallana and Jordan Henderson, while the visitors lost winger Kevin Mirallas to an apparent hamstring injury on the half hour.
