Liverpool star Fabinho pokes fun at Richarlison with cheeky social media post showing his beaten Everton rival clutching his face in pain after the pair's clash during feisty Merseyside derby

Liverpool got the better of Merseyside rivals Everton on Sunday afternoon and midfielder Fabinho couldn't resist poking fun at Richarlison as he took to social media after the 2-0 victory.

The Reds were made to work hard to keep up the pressure on Manchester City in the title race with Andy Robertson making the breakthrough in the 62nd before Divock Origi sealed the three points in the closing stages.

The tension boiled over the closing stages of the first half when Richarlison went down easily one again following a small coming together with Thiago.
