Liverpool 1-0 Everton
Written: 31st March, 2008
Liverpool strengthened their grip on fourth place after Fernando Torres' 28th goal of the season gave them victory in the Merseyside derby.
The Spaniard expertly slotted the ball beyond Tim Howard for the only goal of the game after just seven minutes.
With Yakubu deployed as a lone striker Everton created very little, while Liverpool spurned several chances.
A rasping Steven Gerrard volley hit the post, while Everton's best chance fell to Leon Osman who headed wide.
