It was a brave effort and almost paid off but not quite with Liverpool getting a late late EQUALISER after 8 (yes eight!) Minutes of stoppage time.
The reds were certainly the better team and probably deserved to win after dominating possession and territory, but eight minutes of IT I thought was excessive and Everton just ran out of legs.
You do wonder though, particularly as most of the best players in the world are playing over here because of the Sky money, whether this will go on and we see China being the draw.... Sanchez reportedly this week being offered a staggering 500K per week by Pellegrini! :yikes:
