Liverpool ace Diogo Jota was delighted to make a little history with victory at Everton.

The Reds continued their ruthless recent form in the Premier League showdown at Goodison Park, netting four times in the fixture for the first time since 1982.

“I think it's massive for us," Jota told Liverpoolfc.com. “We know what it means to the fans to play a derby and they were here supporting us and it's amazing for them – 4-1 away, it will be for history, I think.

“We knew they would come with everything and they tried to do that in the first minutes but we scored two goals.

“After that I thought we lost a little bit of control and we shouldn't have conceded because it brought them back to the game, but then second half again well played from us, two more goals and none conceded, so well done."

Jota and co have plundered a staggering 43 in 14 Premier League games so far this season, and the No.20 is hopeful such prolific numbers will be maintained.

He added: “At the moment we are scoring a lot of goals and I think that shows that we are doing the right things. People are getting goals, great goals, so that helps. I just hope we can continue like this for as long as we can."
