Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has revealed how special Dominik Szoboszlai's performance was for victory over Everton.

The 2-0 win marked the Hungary captain's first ever derby of his pro career.

Klopp admitted: "Dom told me, 'I actually never played a derby before'.

"'What do you mean?' 'Salzburg don't have a derby, Leipzig don't have a derby, Hungary has maybe a derby but the countries who would be a derby, we never played since I played international football'.

"'Okay, good, no problem, you give always 100% so you are ready for the game'."

The win has Liverpool sitting fourth on the Premier League table, three points behind leaders Tottenham.
