Everton 0-0 Liverpool: 5 talking points | Premier League 2018-19

#2. Jordan Pickford rises to the occasion

Pickford was back to his brilliant best

The Everton shot-stopper turned heads with his talismanic goalkeeping for England at the World Cup last summer, and even though he couldn't quite replicate those heroics for the Toffees so far, Pickford served a timely reminder of his brilliance with a blinder today.

The Englishman was solid all night, standing firm in the face of adversity and frustrating Liverpool with his crucial stops and saves. He denied Salah at around halfway through the opening stanza with a reflex save, while Pickford also did well to catch crosses into the box by Andrew Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold.

He was never given a moment's rest as the Reds piled up the pressure after the break, but Pickford remained unbowed. He communicated well with Everton's backline and also punched clear a few corners that the visitors tried to get something out of.

There were occasions where Everton's solid defense was beaten, but Pickford rose to the occasion and ensured they don't concede.
