Instead, Diogo Jota assumed the role of derby decider, ending his drought and Liverpool’s mini-slump with a crisp strike; with it, too, went Everton ’s unbeaten run, curtailed at nine. What is instead extended is David Moyes ’s perhaps never-ending wait for a win at Anfield; it is now 22 games and counting.
David Moyes was left hugely frustrated by Liverpool ’s winning goal against Everton in the Merseyside derby, insisting it was a “clear offside” in the build-up. Diogo Jota’s goal just before the hour mark earned the Reds a 1-0 win at Anfield and took them back to 12 points clear of Arsenal at the top of the Premier League table.
Following Everton's 1-0 loss at Liverpool on Wednesday, Moyes became the first manager in Premier League history to manage 20 away games at a single opponent and not win any of them. Moyes has had a long and distinguished managerial career.
