Liverpool FC’s Derby

• Now we’re on to Liverpool’s derby, Everton. A derby is when there are two or more teams in the same city/town. This particular derby is called the Merseyside derby. The last time these two teams played it was a very exciting game to watch. The final score was 3-3 just because of an amazing header by an amazing player Daniel Sturridge in the dyeing seconds of stoppage time.

3 Important Players From the Past and Present

• Robbie Fowler

Steven Gerrard

• Steven Gerrard is the number 8 on Liverpool still plays for Liverpool but he has brought many happy moments to Liverpool. The most memorable moment that I think was for Steven Gerrard was when he started the comeback against AC Milan 3-0 down at half in the Uefa Champions League finals and tied 3-3 as you saw in the video. Liverpool still won at Istanbul in penalty shoot out. Steven Gerrard is the captain for Liverpool and also has the hour of being captain for his international team, England. He has played 651 career games for his team Liverpool.
