Everton beats Liverpool 2-0, secures first Anfield win since 1999

The Hindu  

Twelve months ago Liverpool was ripping up the record books on the way to its first English top-flight title for 30 years but defeat by Everton on Saturday left it mulling a host of far less flattering statistics. Its 2-0 defeat at Anfield was its first loss at home to city rival Everton since 1999 and was a fourth home league defeat in succession -- something it has not experienced since 1924. Everton's first win of any description over Liverpool since 2010 -- after a run of 23 games without a victory -- lifted Carlo Ancelotti's seventh-placed side level with the champion on 40 points although they have played a game less. CHRONIC INJURY JINX Few could imagine Liverpool's fall from form after its title-winning season featured a plethora of English top-flight records such as 24 successive home league wins and the best-ever start to a season in Europe's five top leagues -- 26 wins and a draw from its first 27 games. On Saturday, it became the first reigning champion to lose four successive home league games since Everton in 1928-29 as its chronic injury jinx struck again with skipper Jordan Henderson forced off early on.
