David Moyes has been left concerned by an injury to Everton defender Jarrad Branthwaite which \u2018doesn\u2019t look great,\u2019 according to the manager.<\/p>\n

It was the first Merseyside derby at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Sunday and a big one in the race for European places.<\/p>\n

Liverpool took the lead on 29 minutes through Mohamed Salah, before Beto equalised early in the second half.<\/p>\n

It looked set to finish level before Virgil van Dijk headed in a winner deep into injury time, finding the back of the net 10 minutes after the 90.<\/p>\n

The loss was a painful one for the Toffees and it was a physically painful afternoon for Branthwaite who had to be stretchered off late in the game.<\/p>\n

The England international appeared to suffer a hamstring injury and Moyes admits that it appears serious.<\/p>\n

\u2018It doesn\u2019t look great,\u2019 Moyes told Sky Sports. \u2018It caused problems because we had already made a couple of subs so we were down to our last one. <\/p>\n

\u2018Jarrad was head and shoulders above anyone else on the pitch, I thought he played so well.\u2019<\/p>\n

The Scot added in the post-match press conference when asked if there was news on the centre-back: \u2018No, I\u2019m worried though. We\u2019ve not had any results yet.\u2019<\/p>\n

Goal-scorer Beto was also forced off late in the game with a head injury after a collision with Liverpool defender Ibrahima Konate.<\/p>\n

The forward appeared to suffer swelling under his eyes and was replaced as a result, but there is yet to be an update on his status.<\/p>\n

\u2018I don\u2019t think the injuries we had helped us, in some ways,\u2019 said Moyes. \u2018I\u2019ve got no problem, the players done a great job today, competing against a really strong team.\u2019<\/p>\n

He told Sky Sports: \u2018I thought the players played great today, they didn\u2019t get the result they deserved. We deserved more from it than we did. They did a great job. Disappointed with the last goal but in the main the players did a brilliant job.\u2019<\/p>\n

Reds boss Arne Slot admits his team were poor at the start of the match but improved over the piece and experience counted.<\/p>\n

\u2018There were multiple factors going in but that [experience] was one of them,\u2019 said the Dutchman. \u2018From the start, we were not impressed, they were better in the first 10-15 minutes but we stood our ground.<\/p>\n

\u2018We got better and better in the game. The moment they scored for 1-1 was the moment I expected it the least because we started the second half well. Then towards the end we kept on pushing, were close a few times, and then scoring a goal you would expect Everton to score \u2013 a set piece \u2013 is nice for us.\u2019<\/p>\n

With Aston Villa beating Sunderland, Liverpool stay fifth in the table, while Everton are 10th, but just one point behind sixth-place Chelsea.<\/p>\n
