Decent spell for Everton as they free Seamus Coleman on the right, he puts in a decentish cross but Alisson does well for Liverpool, off his line sharply to make a claim.

Fulham caretaker manager Scott Parker, speaking to Match of the Day: "It was a rollcoaster for me on the sidelines. In the first half we felt stung against a very good side. We didn't put our stamp on the game in possession. That was a big focus for us. In the second half we did do that.

"The most important thing was we showed character. We showed character with the ball, not just running hard that is a standard. We showed character with the ball. Our centre-halves got the ball and played. This is the way Fulham play and the way I want my team to play.

"I am thinking long term in the best interests of Fulham Football Club. I will treat this as long term because I want to help this club."

Bernard puts in a good cross from the left, it skips through and beats three Everton bodies in the area and Theo Walcott has to drag down Divock Origi to stop a counter-attack.

Into the book he goes.

Former Everton winger Pat Nevin on BBC Radio 5 Live:

Kurt Zouma is not short of pace and he will need it because Salah has lightning pace and Mane is very, very quick. It has been raining constantly for quite a few hours and the ball is zipping around.

Who do you think of when you see a Merseyside derby at Goodison Park?

Trent Alexander-Arnold booms a long ball down the right for Sadio Mane to chase and Jordan Pickford does well to shepherd it out of play. 100mph start, someone could do with a bit of a composed touch if they can.

Michael Keane clatters into the back of Sadio Mane. Hello to you. Excellent early noise.

Go! For the 200th time in the league...

Former Everton winger Pat Nevin on BBC Radio 5 Live:

They have to go out and fight, it's cold and wet and that is in Everton's favour. They need to make it as physical as possible. Everton often start slow and they cannot afford to do that today.

Everton are winless in their last 18 encounters with Liverpool in all competitions (D9 L9), their longest ever such streak against their Merseyside rivals.

It was 20C and sunny in the north west of England just a few days ago but we need the floodlights on full glare at Goodison to see through the Merseyside murk.

Almost a night game.

A neat contrast in personalities in the tunnel. Seamus Coleman at the head of the Everton line has a face of steel, focused and fixed into a hard glare.

One man behind him, Jordan Pickford is bouncing around having a laugh and a joke. Get the rave on!

Z Cars for the second time today. Let's get it on!

Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta, speaking to Sky Sports: "It was a tough game. In the first half we played very well and created a lot of chances to go in more comfortably at half-time. We didn't score and we know Fulham are fighting relegation. Every point matters - they pushed hard and sometimes you have to dig in.

"We know that we are entering into the last stage of the season where we have to take everything we can. We have a lot of targets to get. Hopefully we can get what we want"

Alan Stubbs takes his seat as the rain sets in, Gareth Southgate has blagged a ticket too. Somebody has a newborn baby in their arms up in the stands. Pointless.

Former Premier League midfielder Don Hutchison on BBC Radio 5 Live:

Every single person in the stadium is giving the Fulham players a standing ovation. Chelsea could have been more goals ahead at half time but it was a very good second half performance from Fulham.

Goodison is full and fit to burst with anticipation...

Maurizio Sarri does not look happy but his side are the winners. Fulham remain 10 points adrift but they played much better today!

Former Premier League midfielder Don Hutchison on BBC Radio 5 Live:

Take your pick because I think there is a foul in the build-up, Sessegnon might have just been onside but the referee and the linesman came to the correct conclusion after the foul on Christiansen.

'What's that for? Offside?' asks Scott Parker on the bench. It was very very marginal but I think Andreas Christensen was fouled anyway...
