“We are really happy, really pleased. After a long time Everton are able to win at Anfield, it is a good gift for our supporters,” Ancelotti said.

“The performance was good, we were focussed, worked hard and when we had the opportunities we were clinical.

“We have three points, the derby is a special game as we said before but we have to catch three points at home too. It is not good enough at home.”
