Tim Howard: Would have stopped Danny Ings scoring had he come off his line to collect James Milner's corner. 5/10
Tyias Browning: Showed no nerves on first derby start. Also went close with a header. 7
Ramiro Funes Mori: Put in a crucial challenge to stop a Liverpool counter in the first half. 7
Phil Jagielka: A steady performance from the England defender. 7
 
Everton Player Ratings: Deulofeu and Howard flop as Lukaku shines for Toffees
Danny Ings beat Tim Howard to open the scoring for Liverpool
Brendon Galloway: Another nerveless display from the youngster on his first derby appearance. 7
James McCarthy: Would have scored had it not been for a top save from Simon Mignolet. Blotted his copy book with a poor challenge on Milner, for which he was booked. 6
Gareth Barry: Efficient performance but nothing special. 6
Gerard Deulofeu: Lots of energy, but no end product. Booked just before the hour. 5
 
Everton Player Ratings: Deulofeu and Howard flop as Lukaku shines for Toffees
Phil Jagielka gave a solid performance for Everton
Ross Barkley: Booked for clashing with Emre Can. Lost Ings in the box for Liverpool's goal. Looked bright when on the ball, though. 6
Steven Naismith: Denied a goal by more Mignolet brilliance. 6
Romelu Lukaku: Improved as the game went on. Sakho and Can struggled to deal with him and he took his goal well. 7
Substitutes:
Aaron Lennon (on for Deulofeu, 57mins): A lot calmer and productive than the man he replaced: 6
Arouna Kone (on for Naismith, 79mins): Little time to make an impact. 5
