In a dramatic Merseyside derby that ended in a 2-2 draw, Liverpool's Virgil van Dijk expressed concerns about referee Michael Oliver losing control of the match. The game featured a last-minute equalizer from Everton's James Tarkowski, leading to confrontations post-match between players and management. Ultimately, four red cards were issued, including dismissals for both team coaches. Everton's David Moyes acknowledged the emotional intensity of the match while reflecting on its significance, given it was the last derby at Goodison Park for the time being.
I think the ref didn't have the game under control in my opinion ... Both teams have to deal with it. It is what it is. We just need to move on.
It wasn't the cleanest, it wasn't the best game of football you've ever watched, but it was a wee bit of a throwback, bit scrappy from both sides.
