Liverpool keeper Mignolet mixed emotions after derby heroics

Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet had mixed emotions about his performance in their 3-3 draw at Everton.

Mignolet was Liverpool's best player with a string of saves in the second half as Everton pushed, initially, for their equaliser.

However, even he could not prevent the Reds' weakness at set-pieces being exploited as with the first coming from a free-kick and the third a corner.

"As a goalkeeper you don't want to be busy. You like it in training but you have to do the things you are asked and do the best you can," he said.

"It is not nice to concede from set-pieces but we also scored from set-pieces (all three goals).

"We have to make sure we do things better in the next few games.

"But Romelu is a physical presence and sometimes you have to give credit to the attacker as well."
