Everton boss Silva scoffs at Klopp claims after Anfield antics

Everton boss Marco Silva has taken aim at the antics of Liverpool rival Jurgen Klopp.

Silva laughed at his rival claiming the clash was a "World Cup final" for Everton, who last December sprinted onto the pitch after Divock Origi's dramatic late winner.

He stated: “Everton, we all know, for them it's kind of a World Cup final," the Toffees boss responded : “For us? It's a special match for the city and the fans.

“I didn't see a big difference. I managed my last derby in December.

“What I felt was a special match for both teams."

Toffees boss Silva stressed: “They celebrated that lucky goal. For them, they celebrated like a World Cup Final."
