A man who shouted a racist insult at a player during the Merseyside derby has been banned from football matches.
Liverpool fan Robert Owen was arrested after a police officer overheard him shout at an Everton player during the game at Goodison Park in December 2021.
The 54-year-old was given a three-year football banning order at South Sefton Magistrates' Court on Friday.
Owen, of Fernbank Drive in Netherton, Merseyside, was also ordered to pay a £300 fine and court costs.
Speaking after sentencing, Det Insp Steven O'Neill said there was "absolutely no place for hate anywhere on Merseyside".
