Liverpool 5-2 Everton: Five talking points

Divock Origi produced a brilliant brace as Liverpool beat Everton 5-2 in a sensational Merseyside derby at Anfield on Wednesday night.

The Reds forward opened the scoring after just six minutes of a Premier League clash that included six goals before half-time.

Xherdan Shaqiri, Origi and Sadio Mane all struck again for Liverpool, with Michael Keane and Richarlison responding to keep the Blues within touching distance at the break.

But Georginio Wijnaldum provided the only goal of a keenly-fought second half in the 90th minute and ensured victory for the home team.
