Everton vs Liverpool is CALLED OFF as last ever Merseyside derby at Goodison Park falls victim to Storm Darragh

The last Merseyside derby between Everton and Liverpool at Goodison Park has been called off just four hours before kick-off because of chaos caused by Storm Darragh.

Everton said in a statement that the game, which had been due to start at 12:30pm, had been postponed 'due to adverse weather conditions'.

Storm Darragh is wreaking havoc across the country with winds of up to 92mph causing travel chaos, damage and leaving thousands without power.

Liverpool said the late postponement was due to 'severe weather and high winds, which have also resulted in severe travel disruption in and around Merseyside'.
