EPL: Liverpool 1-1 Everton
Everton players celebrate their equaliser against the run of play
Wayne Rooney's second-half penalty against the run of play earned Everton a 1-1 draw at Liverpool
Despite Liverpool's dominance with the ball, Everton equalised as Rooney converted from the spot (77) after Dominic Calvert-Lewin went down under a soft challenge from Dejan Lovren.
Premier League top scorer Mo Salah had given Liverpool the lead (42), finding the top left corner with a fine effort after evading the challenges of two Everton players in the box.
Everton, in 10th place, have still not won at Anfield since 1999, but the result continues Sam Allardyce's unbeaten start as manager, while Liverpool stay fourth.
Liverpool had most of the possession in an engaging first half, but took the lead with just three minutes remaining with their first shot on target.
Receiving the ball on the right, Salah outmuscled Cuco Martina and then evaded Idrissa Gueye, before curling a beauty past Jordan Pickford from 15 yards with his left foot.
Team news
Jurgen Klopp surprised many by making five changes; Solanke started up front, while Coutinho was on the bench. Oxlade-Chamberlain, Klavan, Mane and Gomez also came in for Firmino, Can, Alexander-Arnold and Wijnaldum. For Everton, Niasse replaced Lennon.
It should have been 2-0 before the break as Sadio Mane broke with Liverpool four on two, but he sliced wide instead of squaring to one of his three team-mates in space.
Salah nearly scored his second after the break, heading James Milner's centre back across goal and inches wide of the far post, before Joe Gomez headed just over from a corner.
But with a rare attack, the visitors were level. Rooney's superb diagonal over Lovren and into the path of Calvert-Lewin saw the Liverpool man connect with the forward in the box, and though Calvert-Lewin went down easily, Craig Pawson pointed to the spot.
Rooney stepped up, and struck straight down the middle to save an unlikely point for Everton.
Liverpool piled on the pressure for the last 15 minutes, but will be kicking themselves at two points dropped as Everton held firm.
