Highlights from Liverpool's 1-0 win over Everton in the Premier League

Former Liverpool player and manager Graeme Souness said: "That's how it gets you. Your head is in a different place and you want to share it with your players and he certainly did today.

"He'll be annoyed thinking they were going to draw, and then it's very strange circumstances so his head would have been in a different place. It's great he apologised. Emotion does strange things to you."

David Weir, who played in 13 Merseyside derbies as an Everton player, added: "There was a lot of emotion in the game. If Everton scored that goal in the fourth minute of added time, I'd expect our manager to be on the pitch too. That's fine.

"That's how it goes, and he thought the game was over so you can see his surprise."
