'Fans Have Spotted Jurgen Klopp's Reaction To Alisson Having A Chat With Jordan Pickford

News 5:16 AM

A post-match conversation between goalkeepers Alisson and Jordan Pickford has got people talking on social media.

Everton secured a historic win against Liverpool in an entertaining Merseyside Derby on Saturday afternoon.

Before yesterday's tie, Carlo Ancelotti's side hadn't won a Premier League match at Anfield in 22 years but after a hard-working performance against their bitter rivals, The Toffees secured a 2-0 win thanks to goals from Richarlison and Gylfi Sigurðsson.

It was a solid performance from The Blues and, as Liverpool came to terms with their fourth home league defeat in a row, the entire Everton squad celebrated a deserved win alongside a delighted Duncan Ferguson in the away dressing room.

Gylfi Sigurðsson's 83rd minute penalty put the game to bed after a controversial VAR decision involving referee Craig Kavangh, but Liverpool certainly had their chances throughout the game - and dominated possession in large spells.

Everton shot-stopper Jordan Pickford, however, produced a number of vital saves to keep them in the game.

In fact, the England international made six saves against Liverpool this weekend - the most he has ever made in a Premier League Merseyside Derby whilst keeping a clean sheet.

After a poor performance against The Reds at Goodison Park last year, where he was lucky to stay on the pitch after a horrific tackle on Virgil van Dijk, Pickford would have been satisfied with his performance on Saturday.


Van Dijk, who was forced to undergo surgery after rupturing the ACL in his right knee following the challenge, was watching from the stands at Anfield for the first time since sustaining his long-term injury.

And while coverage didn't pick up the Dutch centre-back bumping into Pickford, Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson was spotted chatting to his fellow shot-stopper at full-time.

Pictures of the pair conversing soon emerged on social media, as plenty of fans spotted Jurgen Klopp's reaction in the background.

It hasn't down well with some supporters.
